KDE The KDE team has released KDE 4.3. This release comes packed with improvements and bug fixes - in fact, over the last six months, 10000 bugs were squashed, 2000 feature requests handled, and 63000 changes were checked in by 700 people. We've already talked about this new release in quite some detail last week, but let's take a look at the most important new features anyway.

I was of course way over the top, it's more like 5 years. And even then some parts of GTK (examples being Cairo and Clutter) are more or less on equal foot with the other toolkits. That doesn't mean many people don't describe large parts of GTK as a 'steaming pile of shit' and similar things. I haven't had a close look myself but I guess the vast majority of developers I speak with (both Qt and GTK and independent devs) is probably right.
(ok, the windows toolkit is, afaik, in most area's, Qt-5 as well. Mac is, from what I understand from ppl who seem to know it, about equal - but different of course.)
