Re: Daniel M. Duley aka Mosfet drops out

I don't intend to diminish his contributions to KDE, but Mosfet is only one of many persons contributing to KDE. In fact there are probably many coders with more importance.

And what generally seems even more important to the KDE development is good teamwork. I think much of the success and development speed of KDE is due to the fact that the hackers work together as a team and not as jealous individuals.

Insofar it's sad that Mosfet decided to leave Linux altogether, as he is surely talented, but he is certainly not undispensable.

Who picks up the Liquid theme ;) ? BTW, is this possible with the current license?

This one is from Tackat (Torsten Rahn):
Mosfet has ported Liquid to KDE3 with a BSD-licence.

It doesn't seem to be anything other than a rumor, though. There's no link, and from the discussion that went on in the kde list, it sure doesn't sound like he had any plans to do so.

If anyone else had ported it to kde3, it still needs to be distributed as patches to liquid-0.6 (because of the QPL) or you would have to re-implement based on the liquid-0.1 code (which was released as BSD).
