Yes, this would be awesome, maybe will need a webform to upload data files and generate kns xml entries for new files, or have a script that runs nightly adding the new data or something. > But what should be done with archives to provide them using KNS? > > Creating some unpacked versions and naming them like > "Chinese characters, file 1", .. "Chinese characters, file 4"? Depends on the app, I'm pretty sure kns can unpack archives after download and with kvtml 2 files being larger than kvtml 1 equivalent files I think we'll want to compress all kvtml 2 packages anyway. Sounds great! Can't wait to have this working. Jeremy _______________________________________________ kde-edu mailing list kde-edu@mail.kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-edu
