I’ve been preparing a series of interviews with KDE Sysadmins and the people directly involved. Today is the day that we launch the first interview.

While I was interviewing, I was wondering where and how to publish them. In the past we used the behindkde.org domain, but that system and domain wasn’t really used anymore. Ingo Malchow decided that it was time to reinstate the domain and use a content management system for it. He did all the work, made a theme, converted some of the old interviews (that’s still work in progress) and setup the structure so we can use it again in the future.

I’m planning to publish interviews with current sysadmins, sysadmins that want to leave the team and some ‘behind the scenes’ admins – who knows who is behind the anonsvn mirrors? Every two weeks a new interview will appear, in total there will be around 6 of these ‘dedicated’ interviews, maybe a bit more. After that we hopefully have some more interviews coming from KDE Brazil.

I’ve very happy we can use behindkde.org in a more ‘platform’ way. I hope it will get used for more than only these interviews. The masters of the universe serie from gamaral is also listed, and we hope to extend it with other interviews, podcasts, vidcasts, icecasts and whatever has to do with the people around KDE. If you have stuff that should be listed there, contact me or Ingo, easiest is via IRC on #kde-www I guess.

The very first interview is with Ingo. Not only did he re-initiate the behindkde.org site, but he’s also part of the sysadmin team. Go over there and read all about him.
