It even ships with (some versions of) SuSE. There are a couple of things I'd 
like to do to it for KDE4:

- I'm hoping to figure out how to draw curved keyboards using Qt widgets. But 
I'm not yet sure that is possible.

- Make the integration with kxkb layout-switching "bidirectional", and 
overridable using viki's own menus.

But that all depends on time. For KDE 3.5 AFAIK, it works generally fine as it 
is.

Thanks, Shaheed
