In open source, we all pretend users come first. Le mercredi 18 janvier 2012, Keith Daniels a

Which users' opinion ? KDE
developers are KDE users, so their
opinion count. Moreover most functionality has been preserved going
from KDE3 to KDE4, and KDE4 could be extended to enable KDE3's old
but readable look. I'm actually surprised nobody did a KDE3-like
Plasma theme. In the meantime, many people including myself find
that KDE4 is a great desktop, at least when it doesn't crash (and
it never does on my machine on which I use it) and once the insane
defaults are changed.
I use sessions heavily and like them a lot. So
please don't
make them go away...

Hi everybody,
I think that Darrell's question:
Is anybody interested?
should be asked on
the "User's" list. Like implied questions
related to TDE icones (thread "[trinity-devel] Trinity logo?"),
for exemple.
I believe that KDE4 - Trinity are what we know because the
KDE develpers did not listen or simply ask the user's opinion.
They simply believed that their way of thinking was the best.
This is the trap we (!) should not fall in!
Remember nobody gets paid to develop trinity. What it boils down to is
"itching your own scratch". Say Darrell is having troubles with kate,
or wants to implement something new with kate. Then he is likely to
do it. He is not likely to develop a plasma interface because he
doesn't care about it.
Thats how I see it at least.
