[edit] Community-Based Support

There are e-mail discussion lists for almost all topics surrounding KDE. An overview of these lists can be found here.

Please keep in mind that all these lists are largely driven by volunteers - demands and threats are sometimes met with cynicism and rejection, while technical questions and legit criticism is usually dealt with quickly and nicely.

Trolltech provides commercial support for their Qt-Toolkit, on which KDE is based.

A list of companies supporting KDE can be found in KDEs Business Directory.
