Fedora to make Plasma an official edition, upgrading it from a spin |
|
The Fedora project has plans to elevate the KDE Plasma spin to be on equal footing with the distribution's Workstation edition which runs the GNOME desktop. Earlier this year the project considered, and quickly rejected, the idea of making the Plasma spin the distribution's official Workstation edition and downgrading the GNOME flavour to spin status. This proposal will place the two desktop editions on equal footing rather than dethroning GNOME from the spotlight. "This includes the following: Listing Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop Edition at the same level as Fedora Workstation Edition on fedoraproject.org. Production of a flagship site page for Fedora KDE similar to Fedora Workstation on fedoraproject.org. Marketing support in a similar vein to Workstation at events. The Fedora KDE SIG will withdraw its Change for Fedora Linux 42 to replace GNOME with KDE Plasma on Workstation with the acceptance of this request." The change should take effect in time for Fedora 42, likely to be launched in April or May of 2025. |
