The relationship between QT and KDE is the same as the relationship between GTK+ and GNOME. You *do not* need to have KDE or the KDE libraries installed in order to use QT.
Can you tell me if qt requires any KDE junk installed? Ie. in order to use MCC, will a user have to install kdebase or kdelibs or is qt enough? One very good reason for using GTK is that you do not need GNOME installed.
It would not be a good idea *at all* to require a bunch of KDE stuff in order to use the control center. What about server systems that only have, for example, blackbox or windowmaker installed? Are we to tell them that with 9.1 they must install a bunch of useless KDE stuff in order to use the drak* tools? With GTK, they don't have to install GNOME, so this is a step backward just to use the "latest thing".
I feel the same way about GNOME as you do about KDE. I don't use GNOME as my desktop environment, and I recently uninstalled GNOME to save disk space, but I still continue to use a few GTK+ apps (grip, gaim, to name a few).
The reason I suggested QT has nothing to do with my preferences, however. I don't know if Mandrake would even consider this. But if so, I suggest they do a poll (even on a vote on the club might be a good idea).
