I think you might be missing Paul's point. While yes I use KDE on
both the Solaris side and the Linux side everyday, not everyone does.
By using the KDE libraries you lock yourself into someone using a
system that has KDE. If I were building a standalone system that only
did music applications

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the write up of Rosegarden 2.1 by the way!

It requires you to actually *think* about what you need to do.
So _Linux_ is the one being elitist now is it?
Every assumption you make takes away the freedoms that linux gives you.

While our user interface is KDE/Qt, the base/ (core library) is just
plain C++/STL.
IMHO, Qt is not a problem. KDE is. Same goes for GTK/GNOME. As I've
said before, I don't think
Linux is not an operating system for simple users.

If someone came to me and said 'I am looking to get into computers,

I have a few more things to say again. You don't need to have the KDE
desktop environment running in order to use KDE applications. All KDE
applications (say, those that use DCOP) know how to start a basic set of
core, life-supporting KDE processes, and these kdeinit processes do
