Thanks for the encouraging words. It's appreciated, honestly. However, I'm not the one to post it to -user, which I don't follow. Others may wish to do so, either in their own (likely shorter) words, or referencing my post and/or the ones in -desktop. FWIW, my post, as seen on gmane: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.amd64/15046 And I'd have linked the -desktop posts in my initial post, had I thought of it before. Here's their links: KDE 3 Future/Status (Aug 10 posting): http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.desktop/3426 KDE project 20090618 meeting summary (posted late, Aug 23) http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.desktop/3438 KDE project 20090820 meeting summary (also posted Aug 23) http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.desktop/3439 -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
