liquidshell in kdereview

[Albert Astals Cid]

Sorry for top postiing, stupid webmail.

Almost all projects start as a one man project, if you reject those you're basically making impossible for them to grow.

Cheers,

For many people kde applications don't work out of the box too.

Also true for kde applications.

I cant comment on that - but the project seems to be alive as there was a new release just last month with a lot of changes, also they use kf5 libraries where needed.

please refrain from using words like 'inferior' for a project as it's not helpful. 
Currently the whole code for liquidshell is done for one person, and we (as in the KDE Sc) suffer for a lot of good projects and ideas that as soon as the original developers get tired the project stalls,
like Macaw Movie, Spectacle, Baloo and quite a few others - so I'm really afraid of a one-man-project that's basically what other many projects already do.


About liquidshell, I tried but it didn't even compile on my machine (some issue with Solid)
