Celeste Lyn Paul

KDE是我最喜欢得WM，不过很久没用了，因为没时间。正打算把老夫那台宝贝老爷笔记本利用起来，装回Gentoo+KDE，跑跑rails玩应该够了。为什么KDE能够吸引那么多得用户呢？最主要得原因，就是他们得团队里面有ppmm了。

Celeste jj和老夫差不多大，却是KDE HCI Group得成员，难得的是Celeste拥有程序员中那种少见的优雅的pp(有点像Oliver)，难怪KDE开发团队写起code来就像吃了石油一样动力十足了。。。不仅pp，还有幽默感，从她的采访中可见一斑：

In what ways do you make a contribution to KDE?

I participate in the KDE Usability Project as well as am a member of the HCI Working Group. Currently I am working on the KDE4 Human Interface Guidelines and have been known to give my {post.abstract}.02(USD) about the K-Menu.

If you have a partner or children, how do they cope with a KDE addict?

He compensates by playing World of Warcraft while I work.

另外值得欣赏的是：

Richard Stallman or Linus Torvalds?

Linux Torvalds, he is a realist, understands how the industry and real world works, and is concerned with making progress and not setting precedent.

I recently heard RMS speak at a conference, my most memorable quote from him was "I would rather have no software than closed software". Although you have to admire how strongly he believes in his causes, I prefer a more practical approach to free/open information. Some progress is better than no progress.

Which text editor do you use? Why?

Out of habit I use VI[M] any time I have a shell in plain site. I've been using Kate a little more, more for coding HTML than for taking notes. I'm not sure why, but it was one of those things in college I used to fight with my friends with.

Viva Vi!
