The discussion about switching to Plastik is in the thread http://lists.kde.org/?t=109500725600001&r=2&w=2

I do not remember the discussion enough to know if the tool was only described or if there was a real link somewhere in the discussion.

Have a nice day!

Yes but where is the discussion where everyone agreed on switching to Plastik, including the Keramik maintainer?

It just happened and as a regular developer, I certainly don't remember agreeing :)

I do not think that the agreement to switch was made in this thread.

It was discussed many times before that changing the default style was needed. The only problem remaining was the documentation that had to remain synchronized with a change.

Have a nice day!

Isn't that non-Free ?

Is kde going to rely on this?

it isn't an integral (e.g. required) tool for development. it's simply a tool with no Free Software equivalent that lets us get a certain, specific task that needs to get done right now in a timely manner so we can get on with the business of producing another great revision of our Free/Open Source Software desktop.

it's similar to our icons: there just weren't any good Free Software graphics packages suitable for doing professional icon design. instead of shipping no icons or crappy icons, the artists used various non-Free tools to get the necessary job done and released the results under an Open Source license. everybody benefits. as Free tools become available, they get used for creating icons.

Yes, it's free as in "free beer" for KDE usage:
