Waldo's attitude is so refreshing

I really liked listening to what Waldo had to say. It is so much more refreshing than the doublespeak you get out of the GNOME people who are basically just low-end Microsoft cloners anyway.

New GNOME look = Linux XP
Evolution = Outlook
Mono = .NET

GNOME in one line:

cp -r Windows Linux

Yeah, I've got an attitude about GNOME. It's part of an mindset that I see that doesn't believe in innovation, but merely replication.

KDE seems like an honest effort to build great software. It is funded by Linux companies, not by Microsoft. It's staffed by honest developers, who call it as it is.

I hope the KDE team continues their great work and I look forward to many incredible developments in the future.
