Connector (for Evolution) GPLed

Linux Weekly News writes: “Novell has sent out a press release pre-announcing Evolution 2.0 (which will be available in the third quarter).

Mini keyboards

WTP v1.0

Well, after almost exactelly two years, the WTP project is finally finished, stable and (as far as I know) bug-free. So I released version 1.0.
