I might be a very ignorant in this topic. But I
don't see a
justification for the rebranding. The product is *still* KDE on 99.9%
with a few bugs fixed. If there will be some large but hidden changes
like moving from HAL to UDEV, moving from DCOP to DBUS, XDG
compliance, etc. It will be *still* KDE user experience.
Similar code, but it is nNo longer a KDE product
The UI is
developed by KDE and the UI is that is valued most here. So this fuss
about replacement of K with T bothers me much! And this seem to take
too much energy instead of fixing real bugs.
The UI was developed by KDE, no longer is. therefore we cannot continue
using their name or conventions. We need to respect the KDE e.v and their
wishes as well.
And by the way pronounciation of TDE sounds awkward... So I'm all
against it. Though I am just a user.
and Guh-Nome and Kay-Dee_Eeh sound better? I think the best solution is to
just call it Trinity Desktop :)
