woooo!

Rekall, Scribus, Kile, Quanta, ... these are potentially killer applications that deserve a front place on the Linux desktop. KDE/Qt applications are coming a long way!

yep

Of course I am :)
In other positive news, we should be releasing a version of Aethera that works with Kolab by the end of next week. Since Aethera runs on Linux and Windows, it will be the only Windows client that works with Kolab.

Thanks Shawn

Shawn your work with/for KDE has not gone unnoticed. Thanks for all the work you have done to make KDE the best Linux desktop environment in existence. There is nothing that will propel the acceptance of Linux/KDE as a mainstream desktop solution like the proliferation of commercial KDE and QT apps. Your work (and the work of your developers) is much appreciated... your donation of Rekall is more than expected.
Thank you!

Collaboration
by David on Monday 17/Nov/2003, @13:57

Perhaps we'll see some cross-collaboration and pollination between Rekall and Kexi, or maybe a merger? They both seem to have some very neat features and together they would be great.

GPLed Rekall
by Jono Bacon on Monday 17/Nov/2003, @19:02
|
Hello people,
I am doing some contract marketing for theKompany.com, and also want to say a big thanks to theKompany.com. I have been working closely alongside Shawn with regard to the Rekall situation, and I feel that he has made wise decision in collaboration with some other developers. theKompany.com is going to be able to offer a good portolio of services in connection to a mature GPLed application that will benefit from the free software development model.
Nice one. :)
Jono

Shawn, How about a server version of kolab
by asto venji on Monday 17/Nov/2003, @22:45
|
I think the one think I would consider buying from you is a server version of kolab. The web page says its version1.xx, but the installation is still by compilation, and it doesnt seem like the various components have gelled together into one app. I was trying out novell's linux services beta and, its also just ldap,samba,nds and postfix bolted together, but somehow, because of the ways its packaged, it feels whole.
Someone needs to organise kolab and put a friendly kde interface on it. it has great potential.

This site is still being set up? Like the PHP-Nuke instead of a Rekall logo at the top?

Well, we shure have some killer apps, but...
by SHiFT on Monday 17/Nov/2003, @23:34

OK. we sure have OO.org, quanta, scribus, konq, kdevelop-3.0 and stuff.
But we also lack analogs of CorelDraw (Sodipodi does not match yet) and Photoshop (well -- maybe GIMP 1.3 will compete Photoshop 5.5 or something)
And of cource -- something like DreamWeaver (Quanta is more like HomeSite)
but, unfortunately, the major issue is drivers, which generally can not be installed without compiler.
and more games!
When the above issues will be solved, my girlfriend will stop using windows at all!

Kapital
by biz on Tuesday 18/Nov/2003, @00:09
|
Hello,
I was just wondering when the next version of Kapital is due for release? I tried the first demo, but decided I wanted to wait for a second version before using it full time. I feel that this is a much needed application and it should be hyped more that it is.
Cheers,
Jesse

If it doesn't sell, then open-source it

I hate to say it, but it seems like this is exactly the case.

This is a great news, but why this guys GPLed their software. Just for love..? Maybe Ghandi turned on a light over their sinner soul..? There was economic trobles with their company..?

... and knoda
by P. Braun on Thursday 20/Nov/2003, @06:34
|
I think, besides Rekall and Kexi, Horst Knorr's knoda database frontend, based on his hk_classes has to be mentioned. IMHO this is the most mature database frontend for KDE at the moment.

Rekall
by Heini on Friday 21/Nov/2003, @07:58
|
Rekall, Kexi, all of these are premature solutions (hope they will exchange code and unifie their framework), but there is a tool for oracle administration that is quite good. And what about phpmyadmin?
From my perspective a user oriented approach may be very good.
Still missing
- OLAP tools
- Object DBMS
