Considering they ported many existing apps to Qt at the very beginning, 
the set of things abandoned would be everything.

Interesting how history gets rewritten though.

Back when I had to buy SuSE in a box of floppies from an importer they 
published a different story about "K". I remember it well.

"We have been experimenting with a lot of desktop environments and to 
keep them straight we started lettering them. This is the K desktop 
environment."
