================== KDE is an end-user focused, openly governed community of free software enthusiasts that strives to provide graphical user interfaces and applications for end-users for all types of computers across the device spectrum: desktops PCs, laptops, tablets, smartphones, etc. We believe that software should be free and respectful of the privacy of our users. Our values are stated in the KDE Manifesto. =================== That seems a decent TLDR. In bullet points: * end user focus * open government * FOSS * GUI applications for device spectrum * privacy This would put focus on developing Plasma, the various Applications and the Frameworks. Things like ownCloud, WikiFM, OCS or Kolab are relevant as far as desktop/application integration is concerned, but not core part of the KDE mission. Note that I'm not arguing for or against this, just trying to answer your question. > Cheers > Martin -- Disclaimer: Everything I do and say is based on my view of the world today.
