Kevin, you have brought up your points and made your position very clear on this and related topics in your 15 mails or so in the last month. The result of you bringing them up has been that people thought more about the proper way to do it, but one point has been made clear. The direction of modularization will continue and is supported by a lot of people. > I find it also quite funny that the very people complaining about > distributions patching in features into their kdelibs are doing that very > same thing as part of their Plasma Active distribution… A sentence like this, that implies an accusation but doesn't straight out say so is not helpful. Its close to being disrespectful. If you want to have an influence in KDE, in its direction and its quality and if you want to enjoy feeling part of a community as wonderful as KDE, this kind of talking is not very helpful. Please be part of KDE, in a positive way. :-) Thanks! -- Thomas Zander
