 Web leak of Linux lets Hat out of the bag | CNET News.com
Bluecurve is Red Hat's attempt to make the KDE and Gnome interfaces look the same, bridging a divide in the Linux universe, said Erik Troan, Red Hat's director of product marketing, in an interview Wednesday.
Bluecurve (the trademarked term is left over from an earlier Red Hat acquisition) will help Red Hat keep control over the effort to unify the two interfaces, Troan said.
Although Bluecurve is open-source software, letting programmers change it if they wish, people won't be able to call modified projects Bluecurve because of the trademark, he said.

 LinuxPlanet - Reports - Exclusive Preview of Red Hat 8.0: Bluecurve's Debut - Red Hat's Bluecurve Desktop Gets Trial ...
Thursday, September 26, 2002 02:53:35 PM Red Hat 8.0 is scheduled to be formally released on Sept. 30 and many in the Linux user community are watching the development of the new "Bluecurve" desktop design very closely.
In the retail edition of Red Hat that's coming out this Monday, the Linux vendor is replacing the traditional GNOME interface with Bluecurve, a Red Hat-created GUI theme combining elements of both GNOME and KDE, the major rival to GNOME (see Figures 1 and 2).
Bluecurve, the controversial new GUI in Red Hat 8.0, looks likely to appear in Red Hat Advanced Server, too, possibly with a few tweaks by Red Hat, but only if it scores points with users of Red Hat 8.0.

 Windows NT Server 4.0 Enterprise File Server Scalability and Performance
The Bluecurve Dynameasure (http://www.bluecurve.com) software was chosen as the load testing software because it best simulated the customer environment and client workload.
A total of 24 Bluecurve client computers were incorporated into the test with 400 to 600 motors distributed equally across all computers.
Bluecurve Dynameasure software (Service Pack 2) was chosen as the primary tool for performance measurement and workload generation, based on the ability of the software to most closely simulate the customer environment.

 UCB Network Managers: UCBNMG: Bluecurve tests network performan
A new release of the company's software, called Dynameasure 2.0, allows companies to ratchet up network performance tests until response time is compromised, giving administrators an accurate reading of their network's capacity and where potential problems might exist.
Tom Grubb, Bluecurve's vice president of marketing, said the company has developed a close partnership with the Redmond, Washington-based software giant, essentially acting as a point company for capacity planning issues as Windows NT is adopted by more and more corporate networks.
Bluecurve says it believes capacity planning software will eventually become a $1 billion business as Windows NT gains popularity in enterprise networks.

 LWN: Hooray for Bluecurve (Linux Journal)
As it's common for the users who have never participated in software development, the author seems to assume that there are hordes of good programmers, who are fanatically dedicated either to GNOME or to KDE.
Hence the suggestion for them to abandon their desktop environments (as if it's so easy) and unite the forces around Bluecurve.
Bluecurve is mostly a pretty facade on top of different underlying technologies (although I appreciate Red Hat's efforts to unify font support) - it's hardly a convergence point for the developers.

 Guild Companies
By having a single Bluecurve interface that looks essentially the same whether it is running on top of Gnome or KDE means that everyone running Red Hat Linux on their PCs, workstations, or servers sees the same screens.
By having the Bluecurve interface give Linux--or at least Red Hat Linux--the same look and feel no matter what GUI companies choose, Red Hat is setting itself up to be the dominant supplier of Linux for the desktops of the future.
In the end, if Bluecurve sells, all the technical arguments in the world against it that are coming out of the Gnome and KDE camps will be so much history.

This document gives a brief history of window managers for Linux, motivates the Bluecurve rationale, and serves as an introduction for using Red Hat 9 with Bluecurve.
Bluecurve is not a third, or alternative, window manager to GNOME or KDE.
So symmetry prevails via Bluecurve, shifting the focus from the "window manager wars" to the essentials of what an end-user is trying to accomplish.

April 5th, 2005, 01:54 PM AFAIK the bluecurve theme is a GNOME theme, and you need some kind of gtk theme to qt theme package for it to be available in kde.
However, I installed Bluecurve by unpacking the RPM and moving all the theme elements to their appropriate locations by hand.
I am not aware of a more comprehensive set of bluecurve icons other than those in the linked package, but would certainly be interested if a member is aware of one.

 To Bluecurve or not Bluecurve? - LinuxQuestions.org

As moeminhtun said, Bluecurve is just a theme - Gnome has clearly improved throughout the releases though - on *average* I think you'd prefer Red Hat 9 to 7.3 - try it - I prefer Mandrake 9.1 to Red Hat 9 though.
