Troubles for the Kubuntu project: a number of Kubuntu developers are complaining that Canonical is not answering their requests. They state: "We all from the kubuntu.de-team have pursued this aim [to improve Kubuntu] together, but most of the work has been done by Andreas Mueller (amu). He is not only co-founder and unpayed developer of the Kubuntu-project, but he's also hosting this website and he's taking over all the arising expenses. During our endeavours for Kubuntu, there were made several requests to Canonical. All those requests are unanswered 'till today! Up to now, there is only one payed developer. Since Canonical ignores all our personal and partly financial engagement until now we have to assume that Canonical is not willing to make Kubuntu a '1st class distribution'."

- xgl/compiz
XGL is not gnome specific, and compiz will support kde in time.
I know, but my point was that it was designed for gnome, and later ported to KDE
- networkmanager
Simular apps exist for kde
True. but they're kde copies of the initial gnome networkmanager
- all hot new mono apps like banshee, diva etc
Seems the kde-devs are satisfied with c++/qt and dont have such a big need for c#/mono
Sure, but i dont see any new innovative apps coming out of it (except maybe amarok).
Also the new gstreamer framework is another great example. KDE users are still left with the unmaintaned arts framework.
