Well, within the week I can't access cvs, thats it. Only that today my
notebook
broke. To be precise: I can't tpye the letters "h", "k" and "l" and the
backspace.
I need a new keyboard or new electric contacts for the notebook and have 
no idea how long that takes --> no coding this week. I am writing this email
on a windows-PC of my dad.

In KDE-EDU is a class called KPlotWidget. With that class you can simly plot
2d-Plots with x/y-Axes, cool tickmarks and everything you ever wanted :) I
already
use that class in Kalzium and it works great. I am thinking about adding
plotting
of the statisticts. Perhaps something like the changes of a certain value in
time (eg
in the last 4 weeks). Are those facts stored in the datafile?

Well, two ideas: What about a enum categorie { SCIENCE = 1 , LANGUAGE = 2
... } 
The problem with that: the user can't define the categories himself.
Therefore I propose
this: In a configurationfile is  a list with categiers. Perhaps XML?

<categories>
    <KMAcat>
       <name>Science</name>
       <defaultDifficulity>easy</defaultDifficulty>
        and so on...
     <KMAcat>
     <KMAcat>
       <name>Languages</name>
       <defaultDifficulity>medium</defaultDifficulty>
        and so on...
     <KMAcat>
</categories>

Qt has xml-parser-classes, xml is pretty wild used and is not Qt-dependend
(like the
KConfig/KsimpleClasses are).

When KMA is started it reads the list and for the KDE-GUI appends the
different categories
to a QStringList. For non-Qt-code it would be a map or a vector.
