Hi,
From the topic:
"Can someone explain this to me? Will this change? Is KDE going to kill
windows concept, or merge it into a plasmoid?"
They won't be merged, but there will be an option of link virtual desktops
and activities. That's what I get from reading the forum replies, and I
think they answer your question quite well.
"All I wanted was just to see real usage of plasma activities."
Why not post follow-up questions in the forum? :) I didn't see you asking
that in the topic you linked to.
Someone posted such a topic here:
http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=83782
This motivated me to write the following blog post:
http://hanswchen.wordpress.com/2009/11/17/how-do-you-use-activities/
Just to clarify my workflow: when I want to, say, work on one of my coding
projects, I switch to the Development activity. I might have some windows
that aren't related to this activity on one virtual desktop - for example, I
typically have my web browser and music player on desktop 1 - but the other
virtual desktops are for coding stuff.
As Aaron pointed out, this mailing list isn't for user support. I would
suggest that you continue to ask in the forums, and if you aren't happy with
the answers, ask follow-up questions.
With best regards,
Hans Chen
