Re: future development?

Plasma is not just the desktop. It's a set of libraries for drawing and animating cool things. (For instance, Amarok 2 uses Plasma to render it's Context Browser.) Perhaps they are thinking of rewriting LinuxMCE's user interface to take advantage of the Plasma libraries, so they don't have to reinvent the wheel. That might make the interface more memory efficient, better looking, and easier to customize the look. (I'm just making an educated guess here; I'm not a developer so I don't really know what LinuxMCE/KDE4 integration would be like.)
