Re: Status of KDE/Qt - interim decision
More and more kde people start to recognize that there is a problem with the
qt lizenze, and search for a way out. qt misguided or not - don't be bad to
them.
but as apt can handle combineing multiple source, i suggest this:
in a joint venture with kde people, we could have a seperate kde/deb
distribution, that is located at debian or at kde mirror - doesn't matter.
this could follow rather the kde release cycle than the debian one -
makes more sence. qt and other programs useing qt could be integrated there.
it's ok for debian to make gnome a default. but you will buy nothing with
make it hard to use kde. everyone has the right to choose his software,
and people choose linux over windows, because it's free and has superior
quality. gnome is free, too, and also aims at better quality.
i understand very well, that some people don't want to have to deal with kde.
but instead of removeing it totaly, create a place where kde and debian people
can work on kde/qt/debian, so they can move there.
