Canonical got heavily into Qt (well QML actually) when they were going to do a mobile phone. Lots of Go code. All dropped when the phone got dropped. Ubuntu is basically Debian with some proprietary stuff. So for a (usually, caveat freezes) more rolling release Debian Sid is fine. GNOME is the default but you can easily change to other GTK+ based UIs or the full KDE and Qt thing. I am guess Arch has a play in this game of rolling releases with GNOME or KDE. Fedora Rawhide like Debian Sid defaults to GNOME, but allows for a switch to KDE. However Fedora Rawhide is, like Debian Sid, only sort of a rolling release. -- Russel. =========================================== Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk
