KDE Gardening Love Project: KRecipes

KRecipes has been in 2.0beta since 2010 so we decided it will be our next Love Project.

Objectives:
* We want to release 2.0 "quickly" and then 2.1 in one/two months.
* Migrate https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/krecipes-devel over to kde.org
* Migrate http://krecipes.sourceforge.net/ contents over to https://userbase.kde.org/KRecipes
* Add krecipes group to reviewboard that mails the KDE mailing list
* Add krecipes to jenkins that mails the kde.org mailing list
* Make sure bugs/reviewboards are defaulted to kde.org and go thorugh
* Port some of the Qt3Support code (make sure don't break stuff) :D

We will be updating this list at https://community.kde.org/Gardening/KRecipes

If you want to join the initiative please join the KDE Gardening mailing list and announce yourself :)

And then? Will KRecipes be neglected again?

Let me understand, are you really complaining that someone is working for free for a program you use?

Seems weird to me.

@manuel:
Overtaking maintainership is out of scope of the KDE Gardening team (for a multitude of reasons).

However this doesn't mean that might someone else steps up, encouraged by the "gardening work". (Especially since it will be then fully hosted on the KDE-infrastructure and hence easier to step in.)

Furthermore a receipe software is surely nothing which is under constant technical progress (like a browser for instance), so the user might just live well with it as is.

I'm really glad the Gardening Team picked KRecipes!
I just found out it exists a few weeks ago and didn't try it because it seemed dead, but it definitly fills a void on my system.
Sadly can't help with any coding, but I would help with any dumb work if there is any.

keep up the good work! i did not know about the project but i think the spirit of your work will bear fruits even outside of these projects.

@hirnsushi: The migration of content from the SourceForge web to the KDE wiki requires no coding at all, if you're willing to work on that please say so on the list.

Seems I was a bit too slow there, will watch the list if something else pops up.
