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. [...]

Dear readers!
Welcome to the readers coming over through StumbleUpon, Digg, VistaSucks and LinuxToday and everybody else!
With the guide I started a rough draft for a way to get Linux mainstream and I would love to develop this idea further so at the end there could be a complete roadmap. What do I need? I need a [...]

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 [...]

Rumor has it that Ubuntu/Canonical might be next in line for an “exclusive” (haha) deal with Microsoft. Rumor. It seems that the Canonical people are keeping up the good fight for now together with Red Hat but you never know. Therefore I would like to express that I want all these cooperations to know that [...]

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 [...]

The Ubuntu issues: bcm43xx, kvm
Just an interesting note. A lot of people who enter this blog and find it with google, … come here with the terms “ubuntu broke kvm feisty” or “bcm43xx issue” or something similar. I haven’t checked the situation lately but this makes me seem that they put out an release that had two significant problems [...]

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 [...]
