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.

>Redhat could simply buy Trolltech

Trolltech's main business are not Red Hat's business and we should not forget that Trolltech is also an embedded systems company, a sector of technology that had better results than others these days after the dot com boom. In other words, Trolltech can prove more expensive that Red Hat can handle. And buying them, wouldn't change much anyway for RH, so there is no good business reason to try and buy them.
