This is a very sad news that you are going to deprecate KOffice, a major part of KDE.
Honestly?
there are many better solutions to KOffice, and maintaining and ENTIRE
office suite is enough work
Enough work? I suppose you know what do you talk about?
Did you try that work and found it too difficult? I am asking seriously, because in
KDE:KDE3
I did not touch KOffice for a year or more. Or maybe maintaining in Trinity is more
difficult?
on top of an entire Desktop Environment! I
think we are going to instead make patches for libreoffice
integration.
Which patches exactly?
Another option may be Calligra in the future (current
version of
koffice). they might be moving away from KDE4's kdelibs and going just
qt, which would open up that for us to use.
First Trinity should be finally ported to Qt4. But I doubt Calligra will ever drop
dependence on kdelibs because pure Qt cannot provide the necessary level of components
integration.
