a couple weeks ago the oxygen team finished putting together a one page presentation, seen in the above thumbnail, of what the oxygen icons project is all about. it's a really nice little piece to pass around to those wondering just what the motivation and concepts behind oxygen are. you can download your own copy of the oxygen presentation here. it's suitable for printing and therefore is a bit big (4.7MB).
zack's kimagefx lib is developing at a nice pace. the graph demo app is taking shape nicely and the number and quality of filters is growing by the day.
you can get it via git with `
git clone http://ktown.kde.org/~zrusin/dev/kimagefx.git` or read more about it here in zack's announcement email to kde-core-develdeveloper wiki friday is going tremendously well today. i'll blog about that this evening though once it's over. right now .. it's lunch time!

Hi, I have a question for you:
KDE4 is going to take advantage of composite managers to handle transparency and animation, right now composite is not to popular betwen the Linux users (or BDS if you want to), the reasons are merely technic, my question is, how is going KDE4 boost composing and how big is the challenge to get composite work flawlessly for every user who till now never used it before?
Nice work oxygen team! Go on with it!

PD:Can we download any of those icons?
Yes, you can download all the icons directly from SVN.
@Ramsees: we'll boost the demand for composition managers by actually have good uses for them built right into the desktop.
just as compiz/beryl are also creating demand, kde4 will turn it up a notch further.
the more people who "need" it, the more likely operating system vendors will ensure that the support for it is there.
that said, x.org is moving along nicely these days and things are actually pretty decent. kde4 is being designed to take advantage of what will come out of x.org over the next couple of years; we have to since kde4 will have a shelf-life of at least half a dozen years (and likely longer that that when you take into account the eventual corporate deployments that move very slowly)
I get-cloned da Zackman's repository onto a SUSE 10.0 system (owned by someone else), said "qmake" and "make" and it built without a hitch.
Poking around in the directories, I found the executable "graph" in "examples/graph/" and it worked like a charm.
Now the question is: how to run a "git-update" command? (I've looked at the git manpage and the output of "git help", but didn't see anything like it...)
you need to do a git-pull origin and then a git-merge
install cogito (a git "frontend", still command line), it's a bit easier: cg-update origin
