No, I choose a car that carries my and my family's luggage in a reasonable speed. Most of the time I can drive alone, but it is still usefull to have a reasonable sized trunk to carry something for me or someone of my family. Or do you think I should always buy a moto and never a car just because I prefer driving fast? > If you want to satisfy your needs, try it for a while and see if it works. > > > You are completey ignoring the fact > > that there are people using oyranos too, it has been developed for years, > > do you think it's fair to drop all that work now? > > Hmm, you pose lots of questions that are completely off-topic here. > And jumping to weird conclusions about dropping work is just unhelpful. I think dropping work must be carefully decided, if nobody uses the code so drop it. I am ready to drop Kopete once telepathy-kde fullfills my needs and I have already dropped features from Plasma NM that nobody used. If there are people using oyranos I think that must be taking into account. > > I am in favor of adding > > support to both colord and oyranos in kdegraphics. > > I strongly disagree with that. > KDE is not a support group where lonely software goes to get more > recognition.

That was not my suggestion, somebody else suggested that in #kde-devel and I agree because I think that fullfills the needs of most KDE users. > > And no, I have not tested either of them > > Then I'm sorry to say, your opinion is just that, one uninformed opinion.

See; > http://www.oyranos.org/doc_alpha/index.html By reading the front page of both web pages I cannot judge which one is more complicated. I do not have time to read all pages in both projects now too. -- Lamarque V. Souza KDE's Network Management maintainer http://planetkde.org/pt-br
