I'll change this opinion if "people from SUSE/Novell will tell us" what

Just don't panic and calm down. KDE isn't gone, and SUSE isn't dead.
Lol, everyone fears change. Hell even I fear it at times. Novell bought
SUSE, I was afraid of what would happen to my favorite distro. But I didn't
freak out, I waited and gave it a shot.
SUSE makes an OpenSUSE project. I cringe and think of how it could become
craphat. It didn't, I was Ok.
SUSE announces that corporate versions are going to use Gnome as default. I
stayed calm this time and everyone else freaked out. So to relax I went
phishing on the list and got some zingers. Lol. (You know who you are
ben)...
Change is something everyone fears because they can't control it and when
you can't control something it's not just your ego, but your world, and
people are afraid of the un-known.
Whenever the change of anything happens, people are afraid, panic, and make
themselves look like they are just coming down from LSD. I know, I've been
there too, and rumors start up mighty quick.
Happens any time anything changes.
I agree with you: people fear change. I think it's a sad story since I'm
200% KDE, but I'm not frightened, I'm not running around pulling my hair
off, and I'm not going to get nervous (makes you sweat, stop eating, ...
not quite productive ;)
The thing IS:
- all those of us that NEED KDE: it will STILL ne there
- why doesn't humankind realise that it's the customer that decides.
This means: I like/use/need KDE so I'll keep using it. I like/use/need
SUSE LiNUX so I'll keep using it and pestering SUSE/Novell as a customer
to get a good KDE.
Summarizing: if Novell's customers demand KDE, it'll BE the default desktop.
In any case: it still ships KDE so I have no worries and I plan
pestering day and night if they even think of dropping KDE ;) And I CAN
be quite a PITA. I invite you all to do the same :)
Anyways, it's friday ... don't get so worked up ;)
Keep on with the good job SUSE!!!
Have a nice weekend.
