<br>
KO GmbH (that's my company) has managed to get a contract with Intel to work on a \
new version of Krita for Windows. We're calling it Krita Sketch, at least for \
now, and it'll be totally touch optimized, and probably have a QML gui that \
reuses Krita internally.. We've got the following items in our work package:<br>
<br>
* make krita stable on Windows<br>
* integration with the Windows color management system<br>
* improved psd format, including export<br>
* touch and gesture support<br>
* touch gui<br>
* touch painting<br>
<br>
As you can see, plenty of stuff that will be really useful for "regular" \
Krita, both on Windows and on Linux. I'm really excited about this, not just \
because it'll allow me to work on Krita way more, but also because I think \
it'll really mean that by the end of the year we'll have a stable, supported \
Krita on Windows.<br>
<br>
Arjen, me and Silvio will be working on the project, and I'm still looking at \
ways to use part of the project budget to sponsor Pentalis.<br> <br>
The final application will officially be made available for free through Intel's \
AppUP store by KO GmbH.<br> <br>
Going from here, I'm looking at ways to make sure KO can make money with Krita to \
keep the development going, so we can keep supporting Krita on Windows and maybe even \
expand the team... Any ideas on that topic are welcome!<br>
