Hi,

Given your background, you might be interested in improving KDE's
integration into Fedora. Currently, almost all of the administrative
applications are based on GTK+, and running these applications inside
a KDE session isn't memory-efficient, wastes disk space, and leads to
incompatibilities. Some possible projects include:

A PyQt / PyKDE frontend to Anaconda:

http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/pyqt/

Using the Adept GUI installer with RPMs

Guidance for system administration (display configuration, user
accounts, disk mountpoints, service configuration, etc):

KIO FUSE to enable commandline apps to access virtual filesystems set
up under KDE:

Making KNetworkManager use KDE Solid hardware interface:

It would be nice to have a KDE Fedora spin that is fully
self-sufficient and that doesn't need GTK+ apps. So if you could help
further this goal, it would be great.

Thanks,
Vlad
