  1. KFE should focus on security, perf, and bug fixes by elucido · · Score: 1, Insightful

    No UI changes. The UI is perfect as it is. It still is very sluggish and could benefit from performance tweaks. It still has security issues all over the place. It still is buggy. But for the most part its now the main interface to Linux and that comes with a certain level of responsibility.

    Make the most stable KDE possible. Follow the Mozilla model. Release often.

  2. Re:Aren't most OSS programs rolling release? by ChunderDownunder · · Score: 3, Insightful

    KDE runs adequately fast on my single core P4 with intel graphics, albeit with not alll eye-candy enabled.

    Processor speed is less an issue than the amount of RAM.
