yes and no. projects within the Appeal umbrella have correlations with what 
you folks are doing in Tango, but Appeal itself is a different animal.

to be perfectly honest, given what you've just said, i am very suprised that 
this is the first time KDE has been contacted about it. i'm glad to see you 
are reaching out to our project now; we ought to get better at such things as 
it creates needless wastes of energy when we go charging off on "cooperative" 
ventures on our own, don't you think?

yes, this makes the most sense IMHO and can be done 100% via FD.o. it would 
make most sense to also get our developers to look it over as they might have 
some insights to offer. the Appeal list is likely not the only (or most 
approriate?) list for this particular discussion, to be honest.
