Re: More openmindedness!

Not really. I don't have any problems with this sort of interview. I'll even read them when they happen to pique my interest. It's just a question of when and if they belong on a KDE news site.

The question isn't "Do you like this application?" "Do you find this application useful?" or "Do you find this interview interesting?" -- rather they're "What is the dot here for?" and "Does this sort of interview fit in with that?"

I mean -- surely we'd think hardware reviews were off topic here? What about a review of Microsoft office? There's a limit somewhere, some of us simply believe that on KDE's news site the information should have some fairly direct relevance to KDE.

"What is the dot here for?"

On this web site you can post or read about all things KDE including new developments, applications and breakthroughs, announcements, feature articles, interviews, events and more.

"Does this sort of interview fit in with that?"

This is the official start of the Dot's Guest Series, which will house articles and interviews relevant and interesting to the KDE community, but not necessarily about KDE. The previous article, despite its sneaky start, was Pete Gordon on Portable Usability Laboratories.
