=2E. and an important part of the messaging (because it is a strength and a=

focus point of KDE, as Olivier points out) will continue to be the integrat=

of these three.

e.g.:

"you can run KWrite on Windows and it works great there as a stand-alone=20
application. but it absolutely shines when you use it with dolphin for file=

annotations or inside of kdevelop as a full IDE. for the full experience, y=
ou=20
want to be running it in a full KDE desktop environment."=20

should be putting out there.

it gets people to try the pieces that appeal to them most in the way they a=
re=20
most comfortable. as we build relationship with them through the products, =
we=20
can slowly but surely increase the number of KDE software they use. :)
