Icons rock too. But trying to get others to do the work isn't the spirit, indeed.

I didn't want to discourage you from trying it, but I didn't have high hopes.

On the other hand I heard a rumour that the Crystal authors might have
KOffice icons for us - Sven, any news?

Yes, indeed, I spoke with Everaldo and he wants to contribute Crystal icons 
for KOffice. I wrote him another mail today, will wait till I get an answer 
and inform you then :)

KSpread error(todays CVS): Styles cannot be loaded


When trying to load a previously created kspread-document, I now get this 
error while trying to open the document:

==============
Could not open file:/path/to/file.ksp
Reason: Styles cannot be loaded
==============

Anyone know what this means, and how I can open my document? Yes, I know I can 
unzip the file and view the XML, but I'd rather not reconstruct it that way 
as it contains a lot of data and formulas.

KChart development

Hi there!

I just wanted to ask whether there is someone actively developing KChart at 
the moment. I'm desperately looking for a good chart drawing program under 
linux and failed to find one yet. But if there would be a way to join the 
developer team and actively enhance and improve KChart I really would be 
pleased to hear from you. 

Thanks already!
Bye - Andreas

btw, I've tried to contact the current maintainer but the mail address doesn't 
seem to be correct anylonger

Hello Andreas,

you should contact Karl Heinz Zimmer (khz <at> kde.org) for the KdChart.
Karl Heinz may also have touched KChart.

The KChart part is mostly unmaintained at the moment, I only made some 
critical bugfixes.

As written (in PM) to Andreas I probably *ought* to contribute
considerably more time and brain to KChart development!
(and I kind of feel guilty for having done literally nothing in that
 area since ages)

The current situation is that KD Chart can do *lots* of things a KChart
user has no idea about since the KChart configuration dialogs cover only
about 50% (or less) of the configuration options by KD Chart.

Also - and this is of equal importance - I did not update the KChart
sources since quite a while: the reason for this is that we actively
prepared our KD Chart 1.0 release and all development time and brain
was put on getting this done.

I have started (since few days only) a chart/plotter library... a bit similar 
to the Qwt library but I hope more flexible. I am in the early coding phase 
... I perharps plan (if I have some time left) to aggregate this library with 
some KSpread part to create a program similar to Kaleidagraph or Origin if 
you know them (which are plotter and spreadsheet for scientific use). Not 
sure I will have the will thought :)

see you,

kfile-plugin for OOo files

I've developed a kfile-plugin for OOo files.
It supports all meta-datas of the meta.xml file in OOo files in RW, 
including meta:user-defined (data defined by user)

It may be inserted in the KOffice packages or maybe in the KDE CVS Tree.
It currently compiles in the koffice/tools/kfile-plugins/ooo path, you 
will find it at : http://bad.sheep.free.fr/kfile-plugin-ooo.tgz.

I dont currently know any bug.
