If you read the thread you'll see that I mildly rebuffed that someone too for this, because it is also an assumption. > If that's so, > then it's fair to assume KDE is involved. No, it's not. You can't take SuSE's support for KDE for granted. SuSE now has a business contract with Ximian. Ximian has a few seemingly very attractive products, which sell well in the enterprise or organisation market. Ximian knows very well how to ring all the marketing bells and whistles. Ximian is very well present and visible everywhere. Nothing comparable there for KDE or KDE-ish companies.... > Then again, you are right, > it's all a bunch of hearsay.
