KDE 4 interview

[Jonathan Roberts]

Hey all,

I've just put up the text for the KDE 4 interview which I'd like to
get out as soon as possible but I'm really short on time the next few
days.

If anyone could help me out that would be awesome :) It just needs
moving over to the /wiki/Interviews space and then submitting to digg
and other news sources (submitting is the most tedious job though...)

I'll get to it by Friday at the latest though, so no panic! Oh, and
it's currently:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JonathanRoberts/F9Interviews/KDE4

Best wishes,

Jon

There are actually five active contributors to KDE SIG IIRC. 3 
volunteers and 2 full time Red Hat employees. You might want to wait and 
talk to them all before publishing this interview. In particular 
coordination between them, weekly meetings etc deserve to be highlighted 
better I think.

Rahul, I solicited the active KDE-SIG'ers to provide feedback/answers, only
Sebastian (and I) replied.

That sucks. Can you prod people a bit more and see if we can get more of 
the SIG involved with this?

I think it works OK with the two people, might get harder to follow
with more. Saying that, if more people wanted to answer questions that
would be awesome and they're more than welcome to do so!

I'll give it another few days before doing anything more with this to
see how things develop, and to catch up with real world things too!!

Thanks Rex :)

A few days have passed and I've had one more reply and added those
responses, along with some screenshots and information on how to try
KDE4 on Fedora.

I'm happy for this to go now, but I'll do some other work first and
give people a bit of time to reply to this thread before I do anything
else with it.

Best wishes,

Jon

I've moved it over to /wiki/Interviews now...

If Red Hat Magazine want this though, my question is, should we
promote it on their site or ours? Would seem silly to split the
attention between two different places.

Best wishes,

We should promote it in our site as usual and maybe highlight it from 
Red Hat site somewhere. A summary might be linked from press.r.c later. 
Truthhappens might be a good place to highlight individual interviews. 
The developer boxes seem to be missing still.
