OpenOffice.org: KDE Integration Project Launched

Posted by timothy on from the smoothing-the-edges dept.

vfs writes "Someone at pclinuxonline.com noticed that a OpenOffice/KDE Integration Project has been started to "provide tight (but optional) integration of the OpenOffice.org to the KDE environment beginning with KDE look and feel and ending with KDE data sources." This could offer a great opportunity for enterprises to deploy an integrated, unified desktop." (Here's the dot.kde.org post on the project.)

    Yes and in keeping with the traditional KDE mode of providing 4 applications where one is required, OO will now become a standard part of the KDE didtribution which knowledgeable user will be able to remove/disable during install (and bad luck if you are a relative newbie, you will still get all the s*&^ libraries and crud needed by OO on your system, unneccessarily).

    As for poor aunt Tilly, she will just see more menus than good and end up more confused.....
