KDE 2.2.2

loopkin writes: "Seems that the last KDE 2 is out. KDE 2.2.2 is faster and more stable and secure than 2.2.1, as stated in the Changelog. You will appreciate the trick that makes the icons load 5% faster in particular. Announcement is here. Please use mirrors for download, but original FTP is here. Note as well that maybe for the first time, there are _official_ RH packages for a _stable_ release (7.2)."

Why why why?

1. Why do people use KDE? It uses up more system resources than Windows 2000, uses the QT library which most programs do not (GTK+ is far more popular, even though it needs some work).
2. Why does Slashdot need to report on software releases? I can understand reports on something that is technologically innovative, but this is just a new .dot release of a desktop... Whoohoo, we can load icons 5% faster, this is much more important than the fact that Stallman is trying to take over the world.
3. Who gives a damn about what RedHat says is 'official'? The idea behind Open Source is to no longer depend on a central source, be it Microsloth or RedHat.
