--- Comment #365 from Ernie <er...@eliteridinggroup.com> --- I disagree with point B. If you are right, there is no point in continuing this argument OR to offer a bounty. The mysterious "powers that be" at KDE will do nothing. Conversely, is there are any developers left that actually care what the community thinks, I believe we should continue to ask questions and voice displeasure with the lack of action. Call it a peaceful protest.If there are a couple dozen comments on this bug every day, maybe we will get action.
