I installed Trinity as an experiment 2 weeks ago, when I came across your website while looking for an old application, and it's so nice, I'm doing all my work in Trinity now. I loved KDE 3.5, and I was sad when I had to leave it six years ago, to upgrade to Debian 6 and KDE 4. After upgrading from Debian 6 to Debian 8 a few weeks ago, two old favourites, Kasablanca and KHexEdit, were no longer available, and I could not even find the source code for KHexEdit, until I remembered reading about Trinity some years ago, and found your website. I think it's wonderful that you're maintaining the KDE 3.5 look and feel, functionality, and applications. I have donated 30 dollars to Trinity via your donations page. I'm sorry it can't be more at the moment, money is a bit tight. Konqueror has improved since KDE 3.5, but I can run Konqueror-KDE4 in Trinity from a menu item with the command /usr/bin/konqueror, and thus get the best of both worlds. Some other KDE applications have sadly deteriorated in the later versions of KDE4. In particular, KolourPaint in Debian 8 has been damaged by a very bad revision, so I am using KolourPaint-Trinity now. It is far better. When I installed Debian 8, I was offered a list of 7 desktop environments to install. I would certainly have tried Trinity at that time, if it had been on the list. If Konqueror-Trinity and Konsole-Trinity need to be given new names in order to get Trinity into the Debian distribution, (to avoid a clash of names with KDE), perhaps I could suggest Clarity for Konqueror-Trinity and Simplicity for Konsole-Trinity, since these names rhyme with Trinity, and suggest some of the defining characteristics of TDE.
