KDE Plasma 5.17 released The KDE project has announced the release of version 5.17 of the Plasma desktop environment. " Night Color, the color-grading system that relaxes your eyes when
the sun sets, has landed for X11. Your Plasma desktop also recognizes when
you are giving a presentation, and stops messages popping up in the middle
of your slideshow. If you are using Wayland, Plasma now comes with
fractional scaling, which means that you can adjust the size of all your
desktop elements, windows, fonts and panels perfectly to your HiDPI
monitor." | | 2:58p |

Perl 6 renamed to Raku The pull request changing the name of Perl 6 to Raku has been
merged. See the
full text for more information. " This document describes the steps
to be taken to effectuate a rename of 'Perl 6' to 'Raku', as described in
issue #81. It does not pretend to be complete in scope or in time. To
change a name of a project that has been running for 19+ years will take
time, a lot of effort and a lot of cooperation. It will affect people in
foreseen and unforeseen ways." (Thanks to Sean Whitton) |
