Hey Alexander, could you give some insights into the differences to our existing KDE E= du=20 projects like KAlgebra [1] and Cantor [2] (including Cantor's backends)= ?

Hey= Alexander,

cou= ld you give some insights into the differences to our existing KDE Edu = projects like KAlgebra [1] and Cantor [2] (including Cantor's backends)= ? I would like to understand where the differences between them and Phy= xCalc are, especially

* w= here PhyxCalc goes beyond their features and

* w= here the benefit of a stand-alone extension lies compared to extending = our existing applications.

IMO= it would help much to understand your application better by understand= ing the differences to the applications we already ship. Maybe there is= even a possible collaboration hidden that could be started :)

Gre= etings,
