Your post to this list ("KDE on Fedora") didn't make it here. I never
saw it in my Inbox and I can't find it in the list archives.
BTW, one of the reasons to avoid cross-posting is that it makes it very
hard to keep the threads straight. Some people reply on one list, some
on another. For those of us who aren't on both, this quickly becomes
unmanageable.
If it's pertinent to both lists, it should go to both lists. If your mail
client cant' properly thread them that's something you should fix. It
works just fine with kmail over here. But labelling it as somemone else's
mistake is kinda un-called-for, imo.
I'm sorry to hear Kevin isn't running for re-election, though I completely
understand his position. He'll still be an active force in the Fedora KDE
community, which is where I think is his best place -- being part of the
team that helps put together one of the most kick ass KDE distros around
:)
