We have been making progress with the KMyMoney for KDE4. It has not been as fast as before, due to many people being on vacation (not me, but the rest of the team), but we are making progress. All the views are loading and it doesn't crash in most situations. It will still eat your dog, but we are getting close.

From our last review, the main points which aren't working is the GPG encryption and WebConnect (that's for OFX files). The database backend is mostly working, save for QPSQL due to bug 259742. Also, charts are still commented out. That's because I still haven't figured out how to instantiate the kdchart widget properly. I call the namespace, but it won't find it. I will get back to that later. We can ship without charts.

In the meantime, I have been running Krazy on the code. I have sent a mail to the translator to start translating the strings and the documentation, but along with that I have been working on spelling and comments with the help of the reports output by Krazy. I got great help from the translators, particularly Yuri Chornoivan, who even sent me a patch for spelling mistakes. I also changed a couple of static HTML pages to being generated programmatically. More strings to translate (now over 2200+)

Other people from the team has been working too on other areas reports by Krazy. All in all, the code is getting in good shape, and I think we need a good last sprint to reach the point where we can start using it ourselves daily.

I am really looking forward to that day. Right now I have to keep the KDE4 dev environment in a chroot, because you cannot have KDE3 and KDE4 devel packages at the same time in Kubuntu (nor Debian). That's a pain. Once I can use KMM daily, I will change the KDE3 version to the chroot, and install the KDE4 devel packages in my main environment.
