Why should a gifted autodidact have less abilities than an academic? Aren't a lot of KDE coders academics? And why do you sent such academic bullshit to a mailing list focused specifically on questions and discussions regarding using KDE on Linux? FWIW since the new KDE doesn't fit my needs, I use something that fits better to my needs. To chose from the various alternatives to KDE could be done by academics, gifted autodidacts and by untalented autodidacts, seemingly just a few academics need a field of study to act self-responsible too, instead of discussing blinkered opinions on a channel that isn't for such discussions. Assumed somebody don't want to drop KDE, using an old version of KDE is possible and sending bug reports regarding the new KDE is how things work for nearly all FLOSS projects. It's ok to mention opinions about good and/or bad design on this and similar mailing lists, but to discredit people is bad. What next? ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde-linux mailing list. Account management: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-linux.
