Koinkoin is a chat application for KDE.

History:

At the beginning was the Web. Then came Linux, and Slashdot came with it. This is when a small group of french OSS users/coders created Linuxfr, sort of a french Slashdot.

It had one killer-feature : a web-based chat (1). It is web-based but also has an xml file that is called 'backend' file. A first application appeared that could display and automatically reload that backend. It allowed posting too.

Then other of these chats and other clients appeared. Those clients were called 'coincoins', referring to the sound made by a duck in french. I told you this was almost a french thing.

Koinkoin is a coincoin for KDE.

What's New in This Release:
The configuration is stored into ~/.kde.
The board and plugins are restored.
The custom boards are fully managed in the dialog box.
