For now - KOffice is really waste of space but I expect - with Calligra and further development, we will have the best office suite on the world. Openoffice is just a big slow buggy but currently still the best offering now. Lukas Tinkl already contacted Openoffice team regarding KDE support. > Also it will be good to offer Double Click for default in what opening > things refer and also > it will be nice to disable the "session remembering" I believe most users > like to start a fresh > session every time they login into KDE. Great session management as found in KDE is big advantage. It's annoyin to start all you applications again and again... But some sort of better management of session would be great. And consider Activities and session like style off apps opening/closing. > I believe, another good thing would be adding some extra KDE Apps, some > apps that most > users would like to see pre-installed, like Kmess, k3b and the Kipi > Plugins.
