/me stands up Hi. My name is Kai. I'm a KDE bigot. /me sits down Seriously, I remember the bogus arguments going on back in the late '90s about the whole Qt licensing. I remember thinking that the Gnome group were a bunch of whining children about the whole idea and that creating a second desktop would do more overall harm than good. I still stand by my opinion from then. I don't at all mind Enlightenment, IceWM and the other "lightweight" desktops, but the Gnome team just doesn't give me the warm fuzzies and I feel they are out to do no good. -- kai www.perfectreign.com || www.4thedadz.com www.filesite.org || www.donutmonster.com closing the doors that surround me so no one will ever penetrate complete my retreat just to wait for the day that never comes so i will laugh alone -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
