Re: Miguel horribly misquoted?



Here's a quote from the article...maybe this is it:

"I don't think KDE has a future at this point, it's not completely free yet
and it's bound to a single programming language in Unix. Gnome from the very
beginning has been accessible through any language. We are providing the GUI
for all the languages and programmers can choose the language they like the
most," says Miguel.
