| | Linux Today - Linux Today: theKompany.com Hands Kivio Source Over to KDE CVS |
 | | Wednesday, theKompany.com, a Linux software firm, announced they have handed the source code to Kivio, their flowcharting tool, over to the KDE project, and that the GPL'd program is now available in the KDE CVS tree. |
 | | Since then, interest in the software has increased, especially where some specific components such as a color selection widget were concerned, making its addition to the KDE codebase more attractive. |
 | | As reported previously, Kivio itself will not be a revenue source as much as the stencils used to customize the program, which the Kompany plans to sell for varying amounts, possibly as little as $5 for simpler ones. |
