Hi Eugene,
Excellent work!
Is there something more people should do to encourage KDE to use Commons material, or have you done all the hard work? :)
I don't think that I done too much, just advertisement :-) I feel that we need closer relationship with KDE developers. I sent couple of follow up e-mails, but time was not particularly good - I got reply from Inge Wallin that he still on the way home.
There are lot of ideas on http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/KDE_and_Wikipedia but I don't think any of them were implemented...
So I suggest that other Commoners/Wikimedians (better communicators then me) will work with KDE closer (kde-edu, KOffice, Marble, etc.) Will be great if somebody with Wiktionary/OmegaWiki experience will work with developers of kde-edu linguistic software. Probably some improvements should be made in MediWiki API to make downloads/uploads/search services easier to use for 3rd party software developers, for example: clip art, wallpapers (particularly from featured images), pronunciation files, etc.
Cross-domain experience is very important in such collaboration projects... But it's require time and dedication. May be other ideas will generated via such communications.
cheers Brianna
With best regards, Eugene.
