Fie on Photoshop: Krita, the Real Photoshop Killer
,----[ Quote ]
| Two weeks ago we learned why Gimp, even though it is a superior
| cross-platform image-editing application, is not a "Photoshop Killer." I'm
| not fond of lurid headlines, but if I were to nominate a "Photoshop Killer" I
| pick Krita.

New consulting company gambles on KOffice demand
,----[ Quote ]
| Although KOffice has its admirers, in many people's minds, it runs a poor
| second to OpenOffice.org. However, some European developers expect that
| situation to change, and to encourage that change, they have created
| KOfficeSource, a company incorporated in Germany. The company plans to offer
| support and training not only for KOffice, but also for Open Document Format,
| and programming using the Qt toolkit. The company's business plan highlights
| its founders' hopes that KDE-related technologies will become mainstream, and
| illustrates the current level of acceptance of free software tools in
| business.

Krita 1.6: State of the art
,----[ Quote ]
| The KOffice raster image editor Krita reached version 1.6 along
| with the rest of the office suite earlier this month. But don't
| be misled; although Krita comes bundled with KOffice, it is not
| a second-tier productivity accessory like Microsoft Office
| Picture Manager. Krita is a fully-loaded raster graphics
| workhorse that stands on its own.
