To Neil and Alan: These examples are trite and are simply and quickly offered up as examples on each others perspectives, irrespecitve of minutia. Old dogs snarl quite a bit, but do not move off of their haunches, unless sufficiently motivated. Its more fundamental simpler than that. You do not change another man's underware (metaphysically speaking here). You offer up new, exciting offerings, at his convenience or time of choosing and hope he likes what you are offering. That's the sort of analogy, thats most accurate, imho. WE can all "wax poetic" about do's and don't of trite examples: the point is it's not KDE place to change *MY* anything, unless I want it by taking specific action or they use a proper roll out semantic. KDE lost site of that, and many astute folks have left for greener pastures. QT/Nokia going over to the "dark side" (aka MicroSoft) has not helped KDE either. WE're all three right, each from our perspectives. (can I get a hug?) I'm quite certain that the 3 of us, have deep experience with "five nines" and such. KDE has become a joke, imho. You want my repect, show me something, with math, HA, redundancy, or 99999+ type of performance. Most of the rest quacks and woddles, so do not argue with me for shooting at the (KDE) ducks..... peace and good hunting, James
