KDE 3.3.2 Released

Posted by timothy on from the maintain-low-tones dept.

MROD writes "The KDE Project has announced the release of KDE 3.3.2 with what looks like lots of fixes for the HTML engine and kmail. So, it looks like the Sun SPARC machines at work will be chewing on the source for the next week or so to get a running version."

  1. VAX 782 trivia by bm17 · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I have heard that the Vax 782 was designed so that the VMS engineers could still build the entire OS in under a day. The 782 was basically a dual processor VAX-11/780. I don't know how true it is, but it was a good story.

    I disagree with you there. The KDE team are very much into modularity; what they are doing is making their applications modular. Konqueror is mostly a shell for khtml and their file rendering code. Everything's in kparts. Kontact works similarly. I think this is a great way to do things, because it means true frontend/backend separation - a frontend is just a shell for kparts, a backend is just a kpart, and both are interchangeable with others.
