KDE's Aaron Seigo Bashes Ubuntu Phone

Posted by samzenpus on Sunday February 17, 2013 @05:54AM from the no-sir-I-don't-like-it dept.

sfcrazy writes "KDE's Plasma Active team leader Aaron Seigo has raised some concerns around Ubuntu Phone. He says 'We can start with the obvious clue: Unity currently does not use QML at all; Ubuntu Phone is pure QML. So, no, it is not the same code, it is not the sort of seamless cross-device technology bridge that they are purporting.' He then concludes, 'If you're a Free software developer, user and/or supporter and buying into these claims, I don't know how else to put it other than this: you're being duped. Consider what supporting those who employ such tactics means for Free software.'"

Imagine a Semantic Phone!!
KDE people must stop bashing others and listen to the huge amounts of complaints on their decisions. They force their view on others as much as any evil corporation. They should make features optional so the user can choose to install things like the Semantic Desktop or not if he doesn't have any use for it.
