Hi all,

Some of you might be interested to hear that the 4.1 Edition of the old KDE4Daily (http://dot.kde.org/1195829316/) is now available. Homepage here (http://etotheipiplusone.com/kde4daily/docs/kde4daily.html), torrent here (http://linuxtracker.org/index.php?page=torrent-details&id=fca82fe83c23df68613d4c20f42fbc6c42bb9bda).

In a nutshell, it's a Qemu image (with a VirtualBox image hopefully coming soon, if the last round is any indication :)) containing a full KDE4 install that will hopefully be fully updated every day. A blog detailing how the last round went is available here (http://ssj-gz.blogspot.com/2008/05/frist-psot.html).

Incidentally, if you are willing to contribute some upload bandwidth and help seed when the Dot article is released and the floodgates open (I only have ~40KB/s upload and am behind a firewall :(), please PM me and I'll send you a direct HTTP download link.

Cheers!

Now seeding, though there's only one leecher. I'm awaiting the VBox image myself, since I am infinitely lazy (and busy).

stopped seeding for now, since there's a good amount of people on the torrent. I was surprised at how decent my upload speeds were; they were hanging around 120kB/s for a while, which is about as high as it ever gets.

Let me know if the number of seeders ever gets low again. And be sure to post a linky to the VBox image if it ever surfaces :)

Great - thanks for helping get the ball rolling. If no one steps up this time around, I'll make the VBox image myself :)

I made a VBox image but I have nowhere to put it to... also I already customized the environment to my liking.

Eerie timing - I've just got back home and found that someone has made a VirtualBox image! Check the homepage for details :)
