Kugar

edit

Dear Jaroslaw. As main developer of Kexi you know that Kexi’s report tool (introduced in Kexi 2.2) is meant to replace Kugar. I don’t understand why you make such a fuss about this topic. It’s not like I wrote about Kugar in Calligra’s article in great detail (doing so would be indeed wrong). It’s just a small link and the link happens to be in Calligra’s components list under Kexi because Kexi is no longer in the component list of KOffice (you moved Kexi out of KOffice in 2010, remember?). Kugar has its own article for details.

As for database management or creator: Kexi markets itself as MS Access for Linux. The Access article says: “Microsoft Access, also known as Microsoft Office Access, is a database management system from Microsoft”. So, when Kexi is Access for Linux and Access is a database management system, why isn’t Kexi a database management system? Here’s a quote from that one’s article: “A database management system (DBMS) is a software package with computer programs that controls the creation, maintenance, and use of a database.” Doesn’t Kexi do just that? --KAMiKAZOW (talk) 01:30, 14 September 2012 (UTC)Reply


  • I agree with you that the Access file format wording is irritating. I'll fix is during this weekend.
  • To explain the mentioning of Kugar further: In the table every Calligra component that supersedes a KOffice component has an entry what it supersedes (Sheets was KSpread and so on). Thinking even further, my mistake was not to mention Kugar but instead not to list Words as replacement for KWord.
  • As for what Kexi is: I have to confess that my knowledge about databases is too limited. I copied the table from OpemOffice’s or LibreOffice’s article (incl. the DBMS part from OO/LO Base). From a Wikipedia point of view however, it'll be handy to link to an overview article. Would “Visual DBMS and RAD tool” (or something along these lines) with links to appropriate articles OK? --KAMiKAZOW (talk) 02:31, 15 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

PS: Any chance you can get your hands on recent Calligra Active screenshots? --KAMiKAZOW (talk) 02:32, 15 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
