Re: You should follow Del Caza dan XIMIAN
by theman on Thursday 06/Sep/2001, @02:12
Nowhere I suggested that KDE league should stop hiring developers or anything like that.
But you guys have to confess De lCaza, Ximian or gnome has won mainstream press attention and appear in the mainstream press FAR a lot more than KDE or KDE developers.
And these KDE peoples keep proud on their OWN website that they are 'the best open source project' or 'the leading linux desktop'.
Reality shows that outside Linux users, De lCaza and his Ximian has been known as the leader/representative Open Source (read: Linux) movement, like it or not.
Time Magazine, Washington Post etc or even Holywood movie has depicted de lCaza a hero of Open Source Movement.
What about KDE project, Matthias Ettrich or KDE guys? I surely not the only one who notice there is no mainstream press mention them...

Well if your want good PR, you might want to contact Ximian (hey, there is a business plan...).

If you want a good desktop, head for the KDE team. I mean: "Look at Gnome" With all their "corporate" support, they are still nowhere near KDE-2.0.

The only GTK app I use is the first one: gimp (ok and mozilla and vlc/xine).
