This is a list of the 'efforts' done by OpenSuSE on integrating Mozilla Firefox with KDE, unfortunately there are not links to the actual patches but it does include, KDE File Dialog support, KDE Application launcher support and other things (that you dont care) like icons and themes. http://old-en.opensuse.org/KDE/FirefoxIntegration If there is a way to get to those patches, it would be trivial to switch to the OpenOffice values since this is mainly KDE code, more than AOO. > > KDE-PIM/Akonadi/Strigi/Nepomuk integration would be nice, but again - > that's gravy; right now we just need the basics. > I notice there was little to no integration with any KDE-PIM on that table, which is a shame, althought Nepomuk track the files more than the applications AFAIK. > > $0.02 > > Ben > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org > > -- Alexandro Colorado Apache OpenOffice Contributor http://www.openoffice.org 882C 4389 3C27 E8DF 41B9 5C4C 1DB7 9D1C 7F4C 2614
