![]() | Text and/or other creative content from this version of K Desktop Environment 3 was copied or moved into Trinity Desktop Environment with this edit. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. |
The group which published the "K Desktop Environment 3" was not very precise with the labeling, which makes "KDE 3" the more used term for this desktop environment. When searching for "KDE 3" or "KDE 3.0" there are more hits shows that it was the major desktop environment beside GNOME 2. I have added one link to a printed article from 2022 which looks at this in retroperspectice. My understanding from the proposal for deletion is that it can be removed if it is disputed and I have done those two improvements.
There are more third party sources of course, the book search also turns out some hits. E.G. https://books.google.de/books?hl=de&lr=&id=Hk74DjrdMlgC&oi=fnd&pg=PR7&dq=%22K+Desktop+Environment+3%22&ots=DSMdnuSUOB&sig=KLtIZpgIKWh3qUDAvOcNOyvTi_o&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=%22K%20Desktop%20Environment%203%22&f=false
More third party sources should be linked to the article, but I hope I could show why this milestone of Free Software desktop environments is notable to keep the page. -- Ber ( talk) 16:51, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
There is a project continuing to support the KDE 3.5 codebase, picking development up where 3.5.10 has left - Trinity Project [1] -- Mewtu ( talk) 18:42, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
The TDE project is no longer hosted at the above link. They moved to a new domain in the second half of 2011. The above link will redirect to the new site, but for those too impatient to wait < 1 second for the redirect (and for in case they decide to remove the redirect), here is a new link to the Trinity Desktop Environment. ~Piki ( talk) 15:35, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
Trinity has been around since mid-2010. Would it make sense to put it into a separate page now? 203.24.101.2 ( talk) 23:42, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
Why is Trinity down now?
I can't reach " http://trinitydesktop.org/" anymore. Yesterday in the evening, it still worked. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.231.222.1 ( talk) 07:53, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
