OK, then I will add the GPLed code back. I have not lost my rights to use it, as I did not violate the license. Only the developer (not "KDE" as a legel entity) who (as RMS falsely claims) violated the GPL, might be banned from using the software. Not I, not you, not most KDE developers, understand?

It adds the GPLed GUI designer, unicode support, XML parsing, mswin2000 looknfeel theme....

okay?
Congratulations. I have been using the newest KDE

for a while and I leave it running in the Office. Nothing ever crashes except for konqueror, the browser and it crashes only on weird pages with wrong HTML and javascript.
Really I would not go back to KDE1.12 for money.
Everybody: Check it out. Try everything. If it crashes or does something you don't want it to: Report the bug. It's automatic after crashes and you can manually start the bug reporting in Menu->Help->Report Bug.
I have had only very good feedback and several features I proposed were implemented.
This thing will have an impact on Unix/Linux desktop use! The browser is quite complete (bugs mainly in java [where does this work??] and javascript.) and renders a lot better and a lot faster than Netscape 4.7. It is also a lot snappier than Mozilla, forget that instable beast. The HTML engine is the best GPLed thing of its kind. Marvellous.
This thing is GREAT. Theming support. Colors are applied to all apps, even Gnome, Motif, GTK, Athena etc. GTK Themes are supported, so you don't loose the uniform look of all apps, if you use e.g. the Gimp.
Thank you developers, thank you everybody, I can't wait for the final release.
QT CAN BE USED for commercial projects,

but not for closed source projects.
It's funny how all the advocates of Gnome claim that QT can not be used for commercial projects... Use an Open source license for your comercial project like StarOffice and you are fine with the QPL....

Star Office could very well use qt-free for their commercial GPLed Star Office.
And their windows port is not available under the QPL, but that's not a problem for a unix desktop and if it bothers you, fork qt-free and make one.
DAMN IT, QT is free for commercial use

It is propagating open source better than the LGPL.
Both have agreed on the Xdnd protocol. I can for example use xmms and konqueror seamlessly.
If you find a place where it breaks, tell both progam's authors that there is a bug....
BTW, I wish someone would hack xmms to use the kde file dialogs. Make it a compile option. xmms does not use gtk anyways...
That and the gimp (and gtk_gnutella) are the only gtk programs I use.
Just like ghtml is khtml, like a Gnome.desktop file is a.kdelnk.
grdb is nothing than an adapted version of krdb. Look at the copyright. But the latest krdb is alot better and sets the colors and so on for:
* qt apps (not KDE)
* motif
* staroffice5.2
* gtk/gnome apps
* native X apps
* athena apps
the only thing not voered so far is xforms
It is really neat, I can use all the gtk apps and they look almost as good as a native KDE app. They used to be in this ugley light gray or one of these pixmap themes. Really sticking out.
Slashdot Mirror
So NTFS does not (without encryption) add any physical security.
They just want to make Linux less useful. Too bad.
And this from a company that did not manage to add fat32 fs support to their flagship OS for over two years after Linux had it...

KDE2 and Gnome are DnD compatible (more or less).

Now guess what: KDE2.0 or more exactly QT2.x allows exactly that!
Cool ain't it?
