> Sorry, but what is the difference with kontour ?

The most visible difference is that the former killustrator/kontour was b=
ased=20
on shape primitives, while karbon is path-based like illustrator and=20
freehand.
But most important: kontour and karbon have a somewhat different=20
culture/background. It's not easy to describe but it matters a lot for a =
=20
hobby-project. Think of kde/gnome but less dramatic.

I think it's like evolution: either kontour and karbon are so similar tha=
t=20
they can merge, or they are so different that they have the right to=20
co-exist. In the end it's about having fun and learning new stuff.

Just my personal view.

Bye
Lenny
