Release rhythms:
- Qt: Nokia has its own release cycles for Qt.* KDE: released with KDE (2 per year).* KOffice: released with KOffice (1 per year or even less).* Extra: Each program has its own release cycle.* L10N: the translations are released with the corresponding programs.* Web: web sites are normally synchronized every half-an-hour.* Never: these modules are never released.
Most Basic System
TODO (In short: the most basic system is made of Qt, arts, kdelibs, kdebase. With koffice, it makes a minimal system for working with KOffice. ???Recommended minimal: add kdegraphics and kdepim???
Qt
Qt-copy is a convenience to avoid to have to patch the official Qt release. (Note: it is not a fork.) Nevertheless KDE works with official Qt versions and also with Qt snapshots (except major bugs of course). Using snapshots is not recommended for using a stable KDE.
KIOSK
TODO (in short: the KIOSK mode allows to forbid users to change certain settings in KDE.) Further information: KDE System Administration Kiosk Introduction
kdesdk
kdesdk contains tools useful to programmers.
kde-common
TODO (in short: this is the module contatining the administrative stuff of KDE. kde-common/admin is mapped in all/most modules.)
kdeplayground
TODO (in short: these modules are the sandboxes for developers. Programs here might not work.)
kdereview
TODO (in short: the programs here are too good to be in kdeplayground but not good or stable enough to be in kdeextragear or even in the KDE release itself.)
kdeextragear
The kdeextragear modules contains stable applications that are not released with KDE but that have their own release schedule.
See extragear.kde.org.
www
TODO: (in short: write protect by default. The www/developer.kde.org might be interesting to download to have the info offline.)
