<p>The KDE/&os; Team have continued to improve the experience of
KDE software and Qt under &os;. During this quarter, the team
has kept most of the KDE and Qt ports up-to-date, working on the
following releases:</p>
<ul>
<li>KDE SC: 4.10.2, 4.10.3, 4.10.4</li>
<li>Qt: 5.0.2 (area51)</li>
<li>PyQt: 4.10.2; QScintilla 2.7.2; SIP: 4.14.7</li>
<li>KDevelop: 4.5.1</li>
<li>Calligra: 2.6.2</li>
<li>CMake: 2.8.11.1</li>
<li>Digikam (and KIPI-plugins): 3.1.0, 3.2.0 </li>
<li>KDE Telepathy: 0.6.0, 0.6.1</li>
</ul>
<p>As a result &mdash; according to <a
href="http://portscout.freebsd.org/kde@freebsd.org.html">PortScout</a>
&mdash; <tt>kde@</tt> has 473 ports (up from 431), of which
98.73% are up-to-date (up from 93.5%). iXsystems Inc.
continues to provided a machine for the team to build packages
and to test updates. iXsystems Inc. has been providing the
KDE/&os; Team with support for quite a long time and we are very
grateful for that. This quarter, we would also like to thank
Steve Wills (<tt>swills@</tt>) for providing access to another
machine so that we can do our work even faster.</p>
<p>While a great deal of the team's efforts are focused towards
packaging released code, we also take a proactive stand in
making sure future versions of the software we port is also
going to work well on &os;. This involves being in close
contact with upstream, raising awareness of &os; as an active
project and also sending actual patches that most of the time
benefit many other operating systems besides &os; itself. In
this regard, we have been dedicating a lot of time making sure
both <tt>clang</tt> and <tt>libc++</tt> are fully supported in
KDE and Qt. Not only has this resulted in many patches being
sent to these projects, but the exposure to these large code
bases have been beneficial to the Clang-on-&os; project as well.
Dimitry Andric (<tt>dim@</tt>) has been of great help as a point
of contact for all the issues we have faced.</p>
<p>As usual, the team is always looking for more testers and
porters so please contact us at <tt>kde@FreeBSD.org</tt> and
visit our home page at <a
href="http://FreeBSD.kde.org">http://FreeBSD.kde.org</a>. It
would be especially useful to have more helping hands on tasks
such as getting rid of the dependency on the defunct HAL project
and providing integration with KDE's Bluedevil Bluetooth
interface.</p>
