KDE League .... Inc. No Longer?

Posted by chrisd on Saturday October 5, 2002 @12:38AM from the good-desktop-regardless dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The corporate status of the KDE League, Inc., was revoked earlier this year by the Delaware Secretary of State when it failed to file necessary papers and pay fees, according to this report in Linux and Main. In addition, the organization seems to have overlooked financial disclosures that are supposed to be made public under federal law. And asked about it, the KDE League's chairman, Andreas Pour, refused to comment." Update: You can read a statement from Andreas here that explains what's going on. Thanks to Thomas Zander for the update.

In better news, KDE 3.1 beta2 is out!

Anyways, the KDE league is and was never tied to KDE itself. KDE does not tie itself to any particular commercial groups (except KDE e.V.).

So, if the KDE league is really down, it doesn't hurt KDE either way. In the end, open source software goes on. I'd like a comment from Dre (Andreas Pour), before I jump to any conclusions.

I reserve this trust in him because he's always done a phenominal job as one of the KDE project's PR guys.
