“I love it. KDE 3.x, which has always remained my
favorite Linux desktop interface, is making a come back. A tiny
group of open-source developers from Pearson Computing is trying to
bring KDE 3.x from the grave in a project that they’re calling
Trinity. ,p>”I’m not sure how much will come from this project.
The group behind Trinity seems to be quite small and the Web site
has been swamped to the point where it’s been unusable. Still, the
very fact that someone is trying to keep KDE 3.5 alive is good news
as far as I’m concerned. After all, I am the guy who suggested that
KDE be forked into KDE 4 and KDE 3 branches back when KDE 4.1 was
the newest KDE desktop.”
