KLog 0.5.9 released

Christmas holidays is always a great time for some coding 🙂 so I found some time to fix two bugs (this one and that one) that were reported just after the announce of KLog-0.5.8 … and as Eric S. Raymond says in The Cathedral and The Bazaar, I release early, release often Read more »

KLog 0.5.7 released

It’s time for another KLog release.

KLog 0.5.7 is not a very big release… but it comes with some additions that may be nice for some of you. As I was announcing in my previous post about KLog.

I have added a very basic function capable to export all the needed QSO that has not been QSLed to a file… that can be imported to a label software to create the labels for the QSLs. I will continue working in the label generation feature of KLog for next releases.

The Changelog for this release reads as follows:

November-2010 0.5.7
– New feature: Added the Export needed QSL that allows to create an ADIF file with all the QSO with new ones and new bands still not confirmed that has not been QSLed.
The objective is to export it to a QSL or label printing software (until KLog implements that feature).
– Updated translations: SV by SM4ABE.
– GUI improved: Added sliders to be able to move panels.
– GUI improved: Changing the band combobox changes the TX Freq box and viceversa.
– Minor fix: The PROGRAMVERSION tag in log was not properly formated.

You can download KLog 0.5.7 from the mainsite.
You can also have more information in the main page of KLog or following the KLog’s tag in this blog.

KLog is free and open software and you can join the KLog’s team if you wish to help the development.
Please, send me all the bug reports and suggestions you have to improve KLog!

I hope you will like KLog.

KLog 0.5.2 and KLog 0.5.3

During the last weekend I released KLog 0.5.2 and KLog 0.5.3.

Do you think that there is no reason for two releases during the same weekend?

Release early, release often isn’t it enough?

Well, I released KLog 0.5.2 on Friday night with the following Changelog:


February-2010 - 0.5.2
- Fixed a bug that causes a crash when connectiong to DXCluster. (bug #016653)
- Added a very basic Satellite support.
- Removed the Freq LCD and added two new editable widgets: Freq TX and Freq RX. (bug #016609)
- Added again the entity count of /M stations.

The main thing of 0.5.2 is the correction of a bug that caused KLog to crash when special strings arrived from the DXCluster.

Just some hours after 0.5.2, I released KLog 0.5.3 with the following Changelog:

February-2010 0.5.3
- Fixed a bug that caused modified QSO not being updated.
- Fixed a bug in the way the band & mode combobox managed the data.

The reason for that was that I discovered another bug in the modifying procedure of KLog that may cause QSO not to be properly updated.

Anyway, I also updated the Debian package of KLog.

The next steps for KLog includes:

Download KLog from any of these URL:

I am thinking about porting KLog to Windows in order to be able to reach to more users and maybe attract more developers to add more features and accelerate the KLog’s development.

Fin de una etapa: Hasta luego KDE-ES.

Hace unos días envié un mensaje a la lista de correo electrónico del grupo de traductores de KDE al español, KDE-ES.

Básicamente y para ahorraros la lectura del mensaje, en él presentaba mi ¿dimisión? ¿renuncia? o no se cómo decirlo, básicamente anunciaba que dejo la coordinación del equipo, exponía algunas de las razones que me han llevado a tomar esta decisión y proponía un plan para elegir al nuevo coordinador así como también presentaba como candidato a Eloy Cuadra, que creo que es una persona preparada, que conoce perfectamente la forma de trabajo del equipo y que lo hará MUY bien.

No me he cansado de traducir… es algo que llevo haciendo, yo diría que por lo menos unos 12 años y probablemente lo siga haciendo pero, entre unas cosas u otras ya no tengo el tiempo para dedicarle a KDE-ES todo lo que necesita (que dicho sea de paso, tampoco es tanto) así que antes de seguir ocupando un puesto sin poder subir las traducciones de los compañeros con la celeridad que requiere, sin atender a los recién llegados todo lo bien y rápido que me gustaría o sin mantener al día mis traducciones del paquete KDEBase, … antes de llegar a ser un lastre para el equipo, prefiero apartarme a un lado y dejar que otra persona coja el relevo y pueda seguir tirando y que KDE-ES siga creciendo y haciendo un trabajo tan bueno como el que ha hecho hasta ahora.

Hay que decir que el grupo de KDE-ES es un grupo de traductores MUY válidos, que trabajan a tope siempre que hace falta y consiguen que los usuarios de habla hispana de KDE dispongan de un sistema en español, con una calidad de las traducciones yo diría que bastante buena, superior en muchos casos a las traducciones de muchos programas propietarios y de pago.

Ahora y… desde la distancia se me ocurre una reflexión: Llevo unos o casi 10 años coordinando el equipo… mi cargo de coordinador parece que era vitalicio.

¿Son vitalicios los puestos de coordinador en los proyectos de software libre? Quiero decir… Siempre se ha dicho que en el software libre es la meritocracia la que ofrece, da y quita el liderazgo de los proyectos.

¿Ocurre realmente así? No se si la gente del grupo LibreSoftware habrán hecho algún estudio al respecto 🙂

Resumiendo y para terminar que me lio a hablar, … en unos días KDE-ES tendrá otro coordinador.

Mucha suerte y a seguir currando!

Translations needed for KLog 0.5.0

The following text comes from an email sent to the KLog’s mailing lists to ask for help to translate KLog.

===============
Good afternoon,

During last summer I started the migration of KLog to the new Qt4.[1]

It is not being easy but I have received a VERY valuable help of Andrew, who joined the KLog’s development team and we changed some things of the development mode of KLog[2].

Anyway, KLog 0.5.0 is not far from be ready for distribution and I am writting this email to request your help with the translation of KLog.

You will be able to find the PO/POT files in the SVN server of KLog[3].

If you have some spare time and you want to help KLog a lot of users will thank you.

I still don’t have a final date for KLog… I want to close some bugs[4] before releasing the QT port of KLog although I think I will not close all bugs before releasing, just the most “criticals” and any bug that may cause data loss or data corruption.

You can download KLog from the SVN and start testing it. I will be happy to receive all your comments.

Thank you very much for your help.

Klog 0.5.0 on the way

Some days ago I was writting about the Qt4/KDE4 porting process of KLog.

I was having problema since a lot of things changes in the QT4/KDE4 API.

I had to fight against lots of compilation errors and warnings, I had problems to call the KLog and Setup classes so they were properly shown to the user.

I asked for help to the KDE-DEVEL-ES list where I received all the possible help.

Andrew joined the KLog’s team, now we are two people coding.

We are using an SVN server in Savannah to manage the code, we have opened two new mailing lists, one for developers and another one for the SVN anounces… We have started to use the bug tracking system of Savannah…

So, KLog is in good shape. It is still not ready for a new release but we are working and it will be ready soon.

You can download the unstable code from the SVN and see what it looks like and help us.

Anyway, this post is just to say that we will be using KLog. 0.5.0 soon.

Rewritting KLog for KDE4

I have been trying to port KLog from Qt3 to Qt4 without success for several months. Obviously I have not time to code everyday nor even every week or month, however I have spent lot of time searching for docs, playing with some tools and doing several tests.

Qt and KDE tools and tutorials are not good or clear enough for a non expert coder as I am. I don’t think that KLog is a complex application so, migrating a simple app, should be an easy task but it isn’t. 🙁

I am doing it just for fun and sometimes there is not fun at all. Having to rework all your software because a library update is not fun.

As KLog is a logbook for hamradio operators it is focused in lists of data: QSO, QSL, DXCC and other awards status.
I think I will have to rewrite lots of code: QListview, QListviewItems, QSocket and all the Q3Support related.

I am trying to port KLog although many times I think that a full rewritting would be the best solution.
I don’t want to orphan KLog! 🙂

I hope Qt4 provides lots of benefits because until now they are just giving work!

I will really thank any help with the KDE4/Qt4 port so, if you have some experience with the topic, the users of KLog and myself will appreciate your help or suggestions.

At least free software developing is not such a hard job, specially during summer. 😉

KLog 0.4.7: New release

Some days ago I was working on KLog 0.4.7 and today I have released it.

All the changes are (obviously) in the Changelog. There are some bugfixes as always but the main point is the addition of a feature to import cabrillo logfiles. Those files come from the main contest software and the support of this format (only importing) have been requested by many users.

I also worked to improve the ADIF support as I told you.

Now it is time for testing. This release may have bugs, the cabrillo import tool may have bugs… I have only tested with the logs of the last CQ WPX SSB but it worked 100% 🙂

That’s all, enjoy the last KLog release and report all the bugs you find and features you miss.

¿Qué hacemos cuando nadie mira?

En el mundo real hay muchas personas que se comportan de forma diferente si piensan que nadie les mira. En función de si pensamos que nos miran o no hacemos o dejamos de hacer algunas cosas.

Alguno dirá – “no me importa que me miren, no tengo nada que esconder” – ya que es lo típico, lo que estoy harto de escuchar, pero claro, una cosa es que no tengamos nada que esconder y otra cosa es que no queramos tranquilidad para movernos sin tener a alguien encima, …

Como comenté hace unos días, el hecho es que cada vez es más difícil estar en una situación en la que no mire nadie. Lo sepamos o no, es muy probable que alguien está mirando. La privacidad está infravalorada.

Como experimento, hace unos meses monté PleaseProxy.me, un sistema de proxy anónimo a través del que, supuestamente, se puede navegar sin dejar rastros…
Evidentemente eso no es del todo cierto, cuando navegas dejas rastros, lo quieras o no los dejas en:

  • el ordenador desde el que navegas,
  • el servidor al que te conectas,
  • el proxy de tu proveedor de Internet o de tu oficina, …
  • el trayecto, posiblemente en los routers por los que pasan tus paquetes.

Con PleaseProxy.me limitas un poco el impacto en la privacidad de tu navegación pero como contrapartida (no hay nada gratis) dejas muchos de los rastros de tu navegación en PleaseProxy.me además de que tu proveedor (o en tu empresa si navegas desde la oficina) pensaré que tienes algo que esconder porque usas un proxy anónimo y el servidor al que te conectas puede denegarte el acceso por el mismo motivo.

Además los proxys anónimos no son del todo anónimos y todo depende del administrador del proxy en concreto.

Independientemente del tema del proxy y volviendo al título de este apunte, os dejo una captura de los sitios más visitados en PleaseProxy.me y cada cual que saque sus conclusiones. 🙂

Las redes sociales y el porno, eso es lo que hacemos en Internet cuando creemos que nadie mira.
