Zander: Views and a Conversion

Thomas Zander presents his vision of KOffice on the KOffice.org blog. The Calligra suite split off from KOffice back in December, and Zander is describing what he sees for KOffice going forward. "My idea for KOffice is to make a set of applications that help people get their work done by being fun and with those plugins there are unimagined possibilities to get users to have fun and to get more types of work done quicker. Specifically the idea of what an office suite is should be [challenged]. Its useless to try to compete in an already saturated market by just copying the competition. Just like with KDE4 its much more fun to build a platform that allows both the old and imaginative new usages."
