I use KDE because I don't care for Gnome. As for Office, Microsoft needs new versions, to generate more income. Linux software can use incremental improvements, because it isn't driven by the need to sell something "new".
Now, we have to find out what size of increment is convenient for the majority. Here is some Start with age of users: - I bet that young people are fine with current KDE3 to 4 step, if they ever tried KDE3, (it looks so boring, like XP) - midage will prefere smaller steps, - and older will do fine with none, but if necessary, than some changes that nobody can actually see. Than computer experience: - new to computer will find everything exciting, screeming more, have you more, - users with some experience will ask not to go that fast, because they just learned old way, and it is obsolete - experienced will be happy if changes are applied after tests and discussions about each of features, so that they have time to switch. *Me: Category: older and experienced KDE: Using KDE3, and play, when there is time, with KDE4, just to be informed when change comes. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
