You're absolutely right here. And it gets discussed heavily.
I just get slowly sick of all that bashing around. Doesn't matter
which way. The KDE SIG needs a bit time to discuss and decide what
exactly will be done (for sure the right thing to prevent that kind of
breakage). Though systematic annoying pestering will not help at all.

I think the point is already very clear and work (thoughts,
discussion) on it is in progress.

Maybe i should send a mail and ask if it's possible to stop attacking
others. I start to get agressive myself, and i dont like that.
