Marknote already has a quick sketch module but it's very limited because it just insert an image in the markdown document which can not be edited afterward. It's nowhere as good as e.g. https://rnote.flxzt.net/ from GNOME. The format being markdown based makes it quite unrealistic to be implemented in the near future.

I need to bump the hugo-kde version, it's using the old font size

This is done

Merged

I have now created a preliminary text file for the announcement in work/staging

These mockups have now all been implemented :) Regarding the tabbar, I ended up with a vertical design as it worked the best with some calligra apps containing a lot of tools.

join/enter/participate/mentorship/start looks good for me.

I just reset work/staging

I very likely won't be able to attend due to my parents coming to visit on the same weekend, but I can help with the logistic.

This one https://kde.org/fundraisers/yearend2022/ which we basically just want to copy past to kde.org/donate. I'll see if I can do that during the promo sprint this weekend

Lays, are there any pages from the web that can help as inspiration for our page?

What would be a good idea is more suggestions for other perks to make memberships more attractive. I am all ears.

We tried in the past to add perks to the memberships and this didn't work out. It was a lot of work and money to coordinate everything. We want to be efficient with our money usage.

Aside from adding the name of the donnors in the plasma wizard and maybe also display the name on the donation page (similarly to that fund.blender.org does), I don't think we should do any perks.

We were asked to make adding memberships the main thing, and it is what I did. That said, I agree we could make it a bit more noticeable by putting it higher up in the text and make it a button or something.

I put the link just beneath the donation box.

Also I just checked but donnorbox support membership compaign, that we should probably use:

https://donorbox.org/membership-compaign

This allow to define a minimum unfortunately this only support monthly and annually recurrence and not quartely. But 10€/month is similar to 25€/quarterly

What would be a good idea is more suggestions for other perks to make memberships more attractive. I am all ears.

Is the fundraiser team okay with the perk of giving away Akademy t-shirts to supporting members at next year's Akademy?

Here a summary of the most important changes for the app I'm involved

• Berlin 3
• anything else is not possible for me

We still need to order the stickers. Feel free to order them to my address (can be found at the top of https://carlschwan.eu/impressum/ )

1. It may help give some focus to the event and the activities you carry out if you define some goals, something that will answer the question: "What do we expect to achieve by attending this event?" . If it something very specific and quantifiable, like "increase the number of contributors to the XYZ project by 50", so much the better.

code for that is here https://invent.kde.org/pim/akonadi/-/merge_requests/28 but I'm too unfamiliar with Akonadi to review it

@xyquadrat do you still have your website on a git repo somewhere?

My proposal for the stickers

Done in https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/2295

An appimage can surely be added. Just need to add an artifact to the release section: https://invent.kde.org/graphics/krita/-/blob/master/krita/org.kde.krita.appdata.xml#L604

We will have 2 campaigns: one for membership where we will only allow donations for the Annually option, and the other for the end of the year that can be a campaign with a deadline, or we can use this campaign for the ongoing donations.

should KF5 & KF6 docs be parallel shown, similar to Qt? Or move KF5 directly to api.kde.org/legacy/?

I added a new comment to the flarum evaluation: https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/task-queue/-/issues/31#note_561132 Personally I think discourse is the best and more mature solution and like Sitter I would also be willing to help with the deployment and maintenance of this new service.

thank you both!

I updated https://api.carlschwan.eu/for/creators/ and I'm pretty happy with the layout

If so, what about the new "Contacts" widget in the system tray? That would probably be worth mentioning too, yes?

My feedback on the state of documentation in KDE:

An interesting project from @sitter https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/plasma-devel/2022-August/122680.html

I just wanted to mention IME for language like korean, chinese and japanese should be easier to use in plasma.
Ideally, one should be able to change to a CJK keyboard as easily as changing from English to French.

Any improvement in this area will provide better accessibility to a large part of the world population.

For kde.org we have some files that there already translated:
