Kubuntu, KDE Has Little Hope For Ubuntu's Mir

[Thaodan]

Totally agree with you. GNOME has gone crazy since 3.0, KDE is a trainwreck since 4.0 and the rest are still immature. The only polished DE out there is Unity.

Unity is GNOME.

sabdfl is less focused on desktop now. He can't be arsed with paying attention to small details like support of DEs completely unrelated to Ubuntu (let's be honest, only Kubuntu mattered to some extent because of Brazil rollout)

The ting is, he didn't need to know anything about kwin to understand his blog post was bollocks, only about mir. Either he didn't really have any technical knowledge about their software or he lied.

Unity is GNOME.

Unity is not part of GNOME project. Although it uses GTK+ and some of GNOME apps we see growing divergence between GNOME and Ayatana as we speak.

I'm not sure he really knows how Mir and Wayland work, he has Canonical Engineering team for that. He is a businessman and visionary, that's why Canonical employs full-time developers.

[Akka]

By the time Wayland actually delivers and becomes part of RHEL we could see massive Ubuntu Server rollouts. Remember Wikipedia.

About how much canonical care about servers. Read Scott James Remnants blog post http://netsplit.com/2012/10/30/goodbye-ubuntu/ funny as it is upstart related.

Read Mark shuttleworths blog. He wrote he was sure kde soon should run on mir some times ago.
I'm sometimes unsure if mark has any idea what his company develop... Has he any engineering background or is he some sort of businessman?

He shouldn't care about KDE ,or at least , they shouldn't care about kwin or the plasma desktop, precisely the KDE sub projects that are in direct conflict with Unity.

nvidia

nvidia will be support mir, you really think canonical dev are stupid? lol

they don t avance to a display server without garanties of nvidia, amd, etc. if you don t see that yet you are too stupid

for me gnome shell is the best de , this is the only reaseaon because I use LInux 90% of my time, and not my Osx 10.8.3

Apperently Shuttleworth don't has the same view as you....

If they had this sort of influence they should not need libhybris. So apparently they have not the power to get Nvidia and the rest to care about their armplattform (probably their prio 1 platform this days). Why are you so sure it is different with the x86 platform?

yes, the same garanties about flashplugin, skype etc... ahahaaha
