Hi Andras, Niko, and all other Quanta developers,

I am a big fan of Quanta Plus, and while I knew that it was a KDE 3
application, it never really bothered me since I use it on a system with
a gnome desktop, until I installed a KDE 4 application and wiped out
most of the libs and utilities for Quanta.   While I was able to
uninstall the KDE 4 application and get Quanta working again this
experience made me realize how important it is that Quanta be updated to
use the KDE 4 libraries and utilities.  

For the next six months I am going to have quite a bit of free time and
would like to be able to help out with porting Quanta to KDE 4.  Right
now I am working on setting up the development environment and have read
the post where Andras laid out the current state of Quanta and explained
what needed to be accomplished to complete the port.  While Andras' post
is very helpful, I am obviously unfamiliar with the project and would
appreciate it if someone could suggest a good place to start.
Preferably a relatively small task that I can use to get up to speed
with KDE/Qt.

Thanks,

Harry Jarrell
