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.

Inline spell-check!!!!
How can this important feature left undone, for so many years, after so many requests???
It’s beyond frustration.
Has Kate reached perfection?
“to make Kate the best text editor on earth” Sorry, but this is already done for me: I definitely fell in love with Kate. In fact, I prefer Kate over Code::Blocks IDE to program my C applications! Kate with the integrated Konsole terminal is just the best damn thing to program quickly in KDE (my opinion).

Great job to all of you Kate’s devs

Auto Spell Check implemented?
The question is if it’s already implemented in the KDE4 version or not: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33857
Auto Spellchek
One of the most desirable features to discuss is the inline spell checker like “Auto Spell Check” in gnome. Kile is almost the best latex editor available, but it lacks an important feature : inline spell checker because it depends on KatePart. So please don’t forget to discuss this.
