I totally agree on the priority of minimizing the number people getting

however I don't think this is the case for this situation. I may be wrong

Can you tell how one can participate in this kind of research for KDE? I am a
scientist and I think I can contribute to these studies.
I read many studies done by MS or Apple. But often the reliability of such
studies done by these companies suffer from lack of hired mathematicians and
theoretical physicists*. One can tell this directly from their scientific
publications.
Thanks,
Orcan
*Remember the MS' publication that claims the maintenance of Linux is more
expensive than Windows in server basis? How reliable do you find their
publications?
