Much less ambitioned projects (naming just YaST as example) have failed before, why should this succeed?
Can you please clarify, what do you mean?
I was refering to the original version of YaST aka YaST1 which was a text mode only application. When SuSE replaced it by YaST2, there was a loud outcry from those that prefered YaST1. So some people took the YaST1 sources and startet a sourceforge project to keep YaST1 alive. And guess what? The project never got farther than its creation.
I remember.
Probably because yast2 quickly got most its problems solved, so there was really no need for yast1 for long. But for some time the distro had to keep both yast1 and yast2, as some features or modules had not been ported (yet).
That's what I expect to happen to this KD3 fork.
That will depend on how long it takes to "finish" kde4 >:-P
Will be interesting to see if they can "finish" kde4 before Nokia Trolltech rolls out version 5 of QT. Perhaps with their interest being a trifle fixated on cell phones at the present they will drag their feet a little WRT the desktop side of the house. Once QT v5 becomes the 'officially supported' version Qt 4.x will be expected to go bye bye. Just like QT 3 before it. Then we can all look forward to v6 - rinse, lather, repeat... -Mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
