KDE At Google's offices in Mountain View, California, KDE 4.0's release event has ended. Various KDE people have given presentations, and a set of them has been posted online. Among them is Aaron Seigo's keynote presentation, which is very interesting to watch, and gives you a very good idea of what the KDE project is trying to achieve with KDE 4 (I just finished watching). Other presentations have also been put online.

TFor example the VOIP framework: you can develop a dozen different frontends to it and every time it gets a bugfix or something all those apps utilizing it will benefit. I like GNOME but I am starting to get the feeling that GNOME is getting left a bit behind.


Decibel is basically KDE's implementation of the freedesktop.org Telepathy specification and GNOME has their own implementation as well, so components of either implementation can be combined.

Work on the GNOME implementation is mainly done by the people at Collabra.

Well, okay ;) Maybe the KDE folks just have been better at trumpeting their implementations then? ;)
