     Aaron started with an introduction to KDE 4, beginning with the
history of the project and expressing how far we have come in the last
11 years. Then, Aaron explored what KDE is, and what our community is
based on - freedom and openness. Freedom to do work, have fun, and
connect with others. Further, Aaron moved on to KDE 4, and discussed the
near-future plans and ideas. The vision of KDE 4 is based upon three
principles: beauty, accessibility, and functionality. He ventured into
the many areas that KDE has improved upon, and pointed to our roadmap
for the KDE 4 cycle.

     The keynote is immediately available on Google Video
[http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6642148224800885420&hl=en], and
will be available for download in other formats soon. The other talks
will also become available tomorrow.
