The Kate project develops two main products: KatePart, the advanced editor component which is used in numerous KDE applications requiring a text editing component, and Kate, a MDI text editor application. In addition, we provide KWrite, a simple SDI editor shell which allows the user to select his/her favourite editor component.

Kate is part of the KDE project. The editor component is part of the kdelibs package, while Kate and KWrite are in kdebase.
The below notes is what was decided at the development sprint in Darmstadt on April 11-13, 2008
In April there will be a Kate Developer Sprint, similar to previous sprints for Decibel, Akonadi, KDevelop and others. This is a great opportunity as developers interested in development of KDE’s text editor will discuss what to do to make Kate the best text editor on earth. This also means lots of polishing so that Kate in KDE 4.1 will shine even more! The meeting will take place from 2008-04-11 till 2008-04-13. The location is hosted by basysKom in Darmstadt, Germany. Many thanks goes especially to the KDE e.V. for their financial support. If you are interested in Kate development, join our mailing list. More to come, stay tuned!
The event is organized by Dominik Haumann, and is supported by the kde.ev.
On the agenda is discussing Kates future development and improving scripting capabilities amongst others.
Update: All content which required that has now been updated to suitable formats, and the site should be fully functional again.
Today we finally got around to update kate-editor.org to a newer version of drupal, namely version 5.7.
The update went flawless so far, and most of the site is functional. Some pages requires conversion of content to newer types, sorry for any inconveniences this may cause. We should be able to finish within the next few days.
Bags are packed, I am ready to go ;)
Hope will have a good flight on friday.
