Description groot 2004-05-13 00:10:22 UTC
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Kontact lacks a whiteboard where several people can connect to a common
destination and draw/write on the same canvas with everyone seeing the
updates in (near) realtime.
Groups collaborating virtually frequently wish they could just jot down a
quick drawing to show the others what they have in mind, just as they would
do on a whiteboard in a meeting room or the back of a napkin in a pub. This
functionality is available in applications such as MS Netmeeting and Aethera,
but not currently in KDE/Kontact.

See also bug #79911, for a request to do this through jabber instead of rfb, and http://pim.kde.org/development/janitor_jobs/index.php at the bottom for the original job description.

I've started implementing this already by modifying KolourPaint...
Comment 2 Nathan Toone 2004-09-02 21:02:27 UTC
Is anyone working on this?

I would probably be interested in helping out with it.
Comment 3 Malte Böhme 2004-09-03 22:19:54 UTC
I also would like to help... this is something defenitively missing in kde...
and i would also like to use something like this in my video-converence programm in the (far) future...
so, is there someone actually working on this?

I've already done one using Qt. If anyone can help, I'd like to make it as required.
Comment 8 Tobias Koenig 2005-08-17 01:49:32 UTC
The common goal: whiteboarding, doesn't matter how...
