Did you ever ask: “Is anybody awake?”
I could not keep my hands away from it. worldwide.kde.org has some new features.
First of all it has, for some days now, a nice little night view. Some discovered it already and deemed it useful to figure out when somebody is awake. It updates every 15 minutes.
There is a smaller view used on my site.
I started commenting the scripts building all these images and write up a little documentation on how all this works. Watch this space.

don’t you think a svg map would be better suited than plain jpeg for that kinda stuff? we could zoom easily without clicking on another jpeg all the time. Plus it would be great to show the power of ksvg. There are plenty of project on the net providing svg map: http://www.google.com/search?q=world+svg+map&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
I found that one in particular: http://jibbering.com/2002/8/foaf-people-map.svg
that one would be cool too but maybe it’s too much

that one would kick ass

My priority was to have a working system again and to promote the map. That we have. I am open to contributions. So if you are able to provide me with a script producing such a SVG map readable and usable by the KSVG in 3.4 it will be included almost instantly.
I do not have such a tool at my hands ATM. And programming such a tool would take too much time, since I have other pending tasks.
worldwide.kde.org will definitly get a SVG map. I just can not give you a time frame. I am working on this with the KSVG developers.
