Congratulations to all the [DigiKam][1] developers with winning the [TUX 2005
 Readersa€™ Choice Award][2]. Being able to provide users with great software
 is what makes working on open source software for me one of the most
 rewarding activities. It's great when users acknowledge that they really
 like your software with an award like this. One of the nicest moments at
 aKademy this week was when a gentleman came up to David and me and thanked
 us for making KDE. He had been using KDE for a few years and it had improved
 his computer live considerable.

KDE itself won the TUX award for best desktop environment, hardly surprising
 given [KDE's track record][3], but heart warming nevertheless. It's not
 something we can take for granted though and there is still a lot in KDE
 that can be improved. I am excited about the increase in [usability driven
 design within KDE][4], I am looking forward to see the first results of it
 back in KDE 3.5! With these improvements I'm confident that KDE users will
 continue to rate KDE the best desktop in 2006 as well.
