We are now planning to move ahead with the setup of a discourse test instance so we can get a sense of how it would work in practice and what, if any, pain points we will hit. Hopefully starting this weekend.

Posting donation graphs to task description above. Please take a look.

    1. What they Say
  • These are regular daily donations, not donations tied to any particular campaign. With a campaign, these numbers would be much higher
  • The mid-year dip is real and we are in the dip time of the year now. It will last for 3 or 4 months, so we should wait to launch at least until after the summer

It looks like even KDE got donations more at the end of the year or at the beginning of the new year.

As we want to target vloggers/youtubers, maybe we should make a video too, right? Also it has become a customary thing have a video along with a fundraiser and we can embed it in the page too , and cut down on the stuff visitors have to read.

I'm noticing that a lot of entries have the KDE logo or the Plasma name or version number embedded in it. I feel like this is kind of tacky and not really appropriate given that our prior wallpapers didn't do this, but we didn't make a rule prohibiting it. I'm tempted to recommend that we retroactively do so and ask the people who have submitted such wallpapers to remove those elements. Thoughts?

Individual colors for each clip should be possible (for a 2nd timeline with "pre-selected" clips).
Other basis color for video and audio should possible as well (for a 2nd or 3th timeline).

Just as an addon-info to this.
At the moment, resetting the color wheel does only that - the line values are not effected.
The other way around it's not like this: resetting the line will also reset the color wheel.
For what I saw on all color correction hardware, there are 2 seperate buttons to reset the wheel and the overall values.

I already implemented this in my local copy of the sourcecode.
If there's interest, I could commit it to the repo...
