The Guide V2.0 is out!
Read it and give me your comments.

KDE 4.0 coming a month later
For the people reading the commit-digest.org from last weekend (http://commit-digest.org/issues/2007-07-22/) already noticed what was posted by mail:
No, I don’t think we are ready for a beta release and the API + Feature Freeze that goes with a beta release.
I think we should tag an Alpha3 on 25 July and extend our freeze dates forward another [...]

Getting back, status…. KDE 4
I was gone for some days. Nothing happened here. Well there was a storm over the blog when the 100% guide appeared and I’m going to continue this project.
For now there is something ahead what I want to touch first: the (100%) Kubuntu Review. I’m probably going to start with Kubuntu, Ubuntu maybe to follow. [...]

I’ve been researching the backgrounds around the current KDE 4 development and I’m missing the existence of a vision for the 4.0 desktop. It doesn’t seem to me that the innovation that was promised to arrive with 4.0 is going to be in the 4.0 release. One of the reasons is probably that there is [...]

It has bugged me from the beginning that KDE was going to be the little sister of big brother GNOME in the Ubuntu distro. That’s why I began to state the whole issue by just referring to the website of both of the projects. A reader commented on this post and made me feel even [...]

Ubuntu drops Kubuntu
Okay, I have to admit I love the word drop in my latest blog entrys so here we go again:
Ubuntu went to 7 like Kubuntu and the other ones too and ubuntu.com was turned into a shiny new website (well I don’t like it that much and I don’t think it gets the user to [...]

Welcome in the world of tomorrow.
While Steve Jobs and Bill Gates are hanging out together and having a great time on stage, we see Linux move foward to – whatever – nothing. The guy who brought Linux on the Dell finally got that done but where is the Linux world really heading? Nowhere!
Nothing has happened [...]

So I started more on the Ubuntu/Kubuntu side and now moved more to a general Linux view, thats where I will stay, but I still want to have a good look at the most-popular distro at the moment, Ubuntu, and Kubuntu, because its KDE and shows diffrent approached, and then will put that together as [...]

Yeah, Kubuntu Feisty beta scared me that much that I just had to take a look at the Ubuntu Feisty beta instead and I liked it right away so I thought I will change to the Ubuntu base for now and later on (well probably we’re talking about KDE4-Kubuntu-times) I will switch. That doesn’t mean [...]
