The kde list is:  k...@lists.fedoraproject.org

Stephen is correct, this discussion shouldn't be on the development list
for the reasons he mentioned above.  I've copied
the kde-list.  please respond there if desired and remove reference to the
development list before sending.

I'd just like to reiterate my earlier comment:

"I believe you are missing the point of defaults.... which is to provide as
complete environment as possible out of the box.  Since this is a KDE spin,
we should be providing as complete of a KDE environment as possible.
Users shouldn't be required to go on a treasure hunt to seek out available
KDE applications.  The idea is to showcase what is available in KDE.  If
you don't want to use a KDE default you can easily either go into settings
and change the defaults, remove the package you don't want, etc."

It's a KDE spin, not a Google spin, GNOME spin, UNITY spin, KDE-Lite spin
etc.
