Editorial A KDE developer tipped me off to a recent thread discussed in the kde-core-devel mailing list regarding interoperability between KDE and Gnome. OSNews featured an interview with the usability experts from Gnome and KDE a few days ago and we expected that the spirit of co-operation would continue to get stronger every day. Luckily this is true regarding most of these developers, but not for all of them are sharing it. Here is a commentary on the issue followed by a summary of the long thread.

OSX -quality

Instead of quibbling over the mechanics of 2 seperate DE's couldn't some of that energy be funneled into a OSX clone? I would love OSX/QE on x86 hardware but i cannot get by with KDE's kludgy UI, nor gnome's appearance. With all the freshmeat projects and talent you would think someone would be willing to waste time on replication of OSX. i use deb for servers, 2k/xp for desktop.
