Currently it's only our own apps (contact list, chat ui, plasma widget,
dolphin plugin...), but there are others in the works like KWhiteboard, that
GSoC(?) project Plasma Classroom and also someone was working on
collaborative editing for Kate using our components, no idea where did this
end though. And there is some masterplan to enable multiplayer in KDE Games
through Telepathy.

We are also planning to do a series of blogposts about all our components,
basically to show people what we've got and how does it work. The first
blogpost will be out probably today on Planet.

Cool, we have a few packagers out there, but we still anticipate that many
people will need that wiki. Btw. are there any wiki visitor stats for
community.k.o? It would be interesting to see how many people actually got
there ;)
