Dennis E. Powell at LinuxPlanet has a new article out. This time he writes about the recent events in KDE history, and also includes a bit about the guys from Helix Code. It's all good.
Evan Leibovitch @ZDNet writes an entertaining piece summing up the recent KDE/GNOME events in "It's the apps, stupid". Stephen Shankland @CNET writes about the Qt GPL announcement in "Barrier lowered between Linux interfaces". Rick Lehrbaum @ZDNet reports on the same in "Good news for KDE".
The opinion of RMS on the GPLing of Qt can be found on linuxtoday. For some readers comments, you can also go to slashdot.
ITworld.com is currently running an interesting web interview by Joe Barr with core KDE developer, Kurt Granroth. Kurt talks about KDE2 vs KDE1, KOffice 1.0, KMail, and much more.
A new release of VisKProg, a visual programming language for KDE, was recently announced. Here are some sample screenshots. Seems pretty interesting, hope they port it to KDE 2.0 soon!
The KDE Core Team took a break from coding and wrote up an official response to the whole GNOME foundation thing. It wouldn't have been necessary if not for the endless questions and misinformation about the project ever since the original announcement.
theKompany.com recently announced the Kivio project, an attempt to build a Visio clone. Kivio will be based on KDE2 technology such as KParts and so it will be fully interoperable with KOffice.
