P.S. One last suggestion to complete my previous message: Maybe having the
KDE/RedHat repo
enabled by default in Fedora 15 for the KDE spin would be another good move.
What I'm suggesting
in few words is to give our KDE Spin a little bit of more personality, as is
the most popular spin, I believe
many users would like to have in Fedora's KDE version something more than a
Clean implementation of
KDE SC.
