The Integrated Desktop

KDE is an amazing desktop environment, but of the applications that i 
use most, none of the packaged KDE programs are really the best of breed.

KOffice < OpenOffice
KMail < Thunderbird
Konquerer < Firefox
Noatun < Juk
Kopete < gaim

One that i really do use a lot is Kate, i think it's a great app, and i 
love it's integration with KGet and fish.

but instead of building it's own web browser, and it's own mail client, 
why doesn't KDE focus on integrating more thouroughly these other 
fantastic, open source applications?

It seems one of the most powerful things that KDE could provide, as a 
desktop environment, would be the integration between the biggest and 
best open source programs in the world into the biggest and best desktop 
environment in the world.

imagine what could be achieved if KDE, OpenOffice and the Mozilla 
project joined forces...

cheers

iain
