Kraft 0.32 Live CD

June 5th, 2009 by

You might have heard about Kraft, a KDE application aimed to people who operate small enterprises and have to write an offer or invoice sometimes. Kraft version 0.32 was released recently, the last KDE 3 based version, the KDE4 port has finally started.

Kraft is one of the candidates for the KDE group for financial apps which is a consolidating idea and was encouraged in Alvaros article A group to bind them all recently.

Unfortunately it is still a bit tricky to set up. To make it easier to check it out Live Images were created featureing Kraft on an openSUSE distribution with all tools and  interesting demo data. That is perfect to try it out and give it to friends and colleagues and talk about.

Please check the download page of the Kraft Homepage for details.

GSoC – summary of this week’s meeting

June 5th, 2009 by

The last week I mainly worked on integrating the oauth rails plugin into the frontend. So far the current integration is more or less a quick hack but it is working (of course the final version won’t contain these quick hacks etc. 😉 ) and I was able to authenticate with oauth or basic auth.

Additionally I also played with the python module for oauth. At the moment there seems to be a small problem with the hmac-sha5 signature but I’m working on it (but this is most-likey “pebkac”). Anyway plaintext signatures are working.

Action items for this week:

  • integrate oauth into osc
  • investigate how to add something like a ttl for access tokens (so that an access token is only valid n hours/minutes/etc.)
