KDE After a few months of quiet activity, the Appeal desktop project has rolled out a new project website that documents what everyone has been up to and discussing. Since the the last public announcement many things have occurred, including another Appeal meeting being held in Germany. The project is looking forward to sharing its experiences and gathering input from the general KDE developer community at aKademy 2005 later this month.

I think Tenor compares more to the Gnome Storage project. Personally I am using Gnome, but I have to say i was a bit dissapointed of Beagle, so far i think it does not live up to all the hype around it and it is a real shame that Storage does not receive more attention from the community (I don't know if it is still alive even). I really hope the Tenor stuff takes off, maybe it could work as a general framework for all Linux Desktops ... one will have to wait and see.

there are certainly points of crossover, yes.

the biggest problem is that Storage aims to reinvent everything at the beginning. with Tenor we're taking a more pragmatic, measured approach where a Storage like solution is a generation or two down the roadmap.

the inertia from application development and user expectations is just too large to try and switch everything on day 1 successfully.

sometimes you have to ease the revolution in ;)
