Re: Thank you all guys

KDE is now doing almost everything over D-Bus.

Remember that since last May, D-Bus is the official IPC/RPC mechanism for KDE 4.

One thing I want to do in the near future (whenever I find the time) is to port KIO's own protocol to D-Bus. This would expose the ioslaves to D-Bus, if necessary. That's one of the two remaining non-D-Bus IPC mechanisms that I can remember right now (the other one being the communication between klauncher and kdeinit, but we won't change that).

Now, I'd like to point out that this is not an unified VFS mechanism that many people are clamoring for. But it may be a start, if it proves useful, and it may pave the way to a real implementation.
