You do realise I was there, right? My first version of KDE was 1.0 beta 3 and I started contributing to KDE in 2000 in the lead up to KDE 2.0. One of the emails I still use today is @kde.org. I am a member of the KDE e.V. (though passive, due to never being able to travel to the general assemblies). No application was ported to Qt. All of them were written from scratch. If you meant that older applications were being replaced with new ones with Qt, then sure. Most of them were either Xaw (Athena Widgets), pure X11 or Motif, though Motif ones weren't Open Source. > Back when I had to buy SuSE in a box of floppies from an importer they > published a different story about "K". I remember it well. You're not the only one who used floppies. I did too, but my first distribution (Slackware 3.2) lacked a K series because it was just too new at the time. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel System Software Products _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/interest
