Re: KDE Questions and Approval ...

[bruce@pixar.com (Bruce Perens)]

You should be aware that we have a little problem with KDE. It uses Qt,
which isn't free software by Debian's definition. For this reason,
we are looking very hard at several upcoming replacements for KDE, and
will probably designate one as our preferred graphical desktop when it
is ready. If I had to guess which one that would be today, I'd say GNOME,
which you can read about at http://www.gnome.org/ .
Other Linux distributions that care about free software will be making
similar decisions.

	Thanks
