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.

Because that will take YEARS and the Linux distros don't have the time for these kind of silly races. They need to do work and they need to satisfy their customers. And TODAY, their customers want both Qt and GTK+ apps. They don't have the luxury to wait.

That's silly now, please.
