<h1>Project Overview</h1>
<p>The KDE project is a Free Software project.
KDE groups together hundreds of
software engineers from across the globe,
committed to the development of; and the spirit
of free software.
Every single line of KDE source code is made
available under an open source license. The current
<a href="http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/Licensing_Policy">licensing policy</a>
is also available online.
This effectively means that everyone is free to
modify and distribute KDE source code. Implications of this fact
are several, in particular
the fact that KDE is available free
of charge to anyone, and will always be so.</p>

<a href="#factsandfigures">Facts and Figures</a>]</div>
<h2><a name="need"></a>Why is there a need for KDE?</h2>
<p>
The traditional X11 desktop exhibits amidst others, the following
shortcomings:
</p>
<ul>
<li>No easy dialog based desktop configuration</li>
<li>No unified application help system</li>
<li>No common application development framework</li>
<li>No compound document framework</li>
<li>Lack of network transparency on the application level</li>
<li>Authoring of applications is extremely difficult and tedious</li>
</ul>
<h2><a name="usersview"></a>KDE - The users view</h2>
<p>
For its users KDE brings out an entire barage of
new ideas. Some are:
</p>
<ul>
<li>A "Beautiful" contemporary desktop</li>
<li>Complete network transparency and minimal need
for configuration</li>
<li>An integrated help system, thus allowing convenient and
consistent access to help on the use of the desktop and
applications</li>
<li>Consistent look and feel</li>
<li>Standardized menus, toolbars, keybindings, color-schemes, etc.</li>
<li>Internationalization: KDE is available in more than 50 languages</li>
<li>Centralized, consistent, dialog driven desktop configurations</li>
<li>A host of useful KDE applications</li>
</ul>
<h2><a name="distribution"></a>The Current KDE distribution</h2>
<p>The current <strong>official</strong> KDE distribution consists
of the following packages:</p>
<ul>
<li>KDE-Libs: Various run-time libraries.</li>
<li>KDE-Base: The base components (window-manager, desktop, panel, Konqueror)</li>
<li>KDE-Plasma-Addons: Additional themes and applets for the desktop and panel</li>
<li>KDE-Network: Networking applications such as an instant messenger and download manager.</li>
<li><a href="http://kontact.kde.org/">KDE-Pim</a>: Mail client, addressbook, organizer and groupware integration.</li>
<li>KDE-Graphics: Document viewer, image viewer and selected other graphics applications.</li>
<li><a href="http://multimedia.kde.org/">KDE-Multimedia</a>: Includes a video player as well as different audio players.</li>
<li><a href="http://phonon.kde.org">Phonon</a>: Multimedia layer that
supports different backends, on different operating systems, for multimedia output.</li>
<li><a href="http://accessibility.kde.org/">KDE-Accessibility</a>:
Applications to improve computer access for disabled people such as a text-to-speech system.</li>
<li><a href="http://utils.kde.org">KDE-Utilities</a>:
Useful utilities like an archiving tool and a calculator.</li>
<li><a href="http://edu.kde.org/">KDE-Edu</a>: Education and science applications.</li>
<li><a href="http://games.kde.org/">KDE-Games</a>: Classic and modern games.</li>
<li>KDE-Toys: KDE's fun stuff.</li>
<li><a href="http://kde-artists.org">KDE-Artwork</a>: Additional icons, styles, wallpapers, screensavers and window decorations.</li>
<li>KDE-Admin: Various tools to aid with system administration.</li>
<li>KDE-SDK: Script and tools which simplify development of KDE applications.</li>
<li><a href="http://koffice.org/">KOffice</a>: Integrated office suite.</li>
<li><a href="http://kdevelop.org/">KDevelop</a>: C/C++ Integrated Development Environment.</li>
<li>KDE-Bindings: bindings for various programming languages (Python, Ruby, Perl, Java...).</li>
<li><a href="http://www.kdewebdev.org">KDEWebdev</a>: Web development applications and tools.</li>
</ul>
<p>Two pseudo-packages <strong>not part of the official release</strong>
are also available.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://extragear.kde.org/">KDE-Extragear</a>: Extragear is a
collection of applications associated with the KDE project, not part of the
official release for various reasons. These are however still part of
the project and can be downloaded separately. This gives them higher
visibility to Translators and Documentation Writers. </li>
<li>KDE-Playground: Similar to KDE-Extragear, this pseudo-package
also contains software not part of the main
KDE release.</li>
</ul>
<p>And last but certainly not the least, there are literally
thousands of excellent KDE applications not part of KDE releases
or the Official KDE project.
You can find these using KDE's <a href="http://www.kde-apps.org">central database</a>.</p>

<h2><a name="factsandfigures"></a>KDE Facts and Figures</h2>
<p>KDE is a very large project. While it is hard to quantify
what this means, for an idea consider the fact:</p>
<ul>
<li>
The KDE SVN source code repository holds currently over 4.0 million lines
of code. (To put things into perspective: The Linux kernel version 2.5.71
consists of about 3.7 million lines of code.)
</li>
<li>Over 1900 contributors help to develop KDE.</li>
<li>The translation team itself consists of about 300 individuals.</li>
<li>11,014 SVN commits were made during May 2002.</li>
