I don't think GNOME's Workshop projects has any programs out of development
stages either, does it? And I have both GNOME and KDE, and KDE is
light-years ahead of GNOME (no offense to the GNOME Project, or to the FSF).

    Hello,
    BBC recently conducted an interview with Gnome "coordinator" Miguel de
    Icaza, and he had some things to say about KDE, although not very
    favorable.  The article mentions that Gnome has a fully fledged office
    suite, which of course should make it appealing to general audience.  I
    wonder why they forgot to mention that KDE also has a functional office
    suite, and a host of other applications.  One point I'm interested in:
    I was under impression that Qt is also available for Win32 and other
    non-UNIX platforms (?), but the article makes it look like Qt is a
    UNIX-only product.

    The link to the article originally appeared on SlashDot, along with an
    interesting remark.
