Kmldonkey does nothing but provide a frontend to an mldonkey daemon. The list 
you see is fetched and handled by mldonkey, kmldonkey just displays it. 
Kmldonkey does not even schedule the automatic connects/disconnects, that's 
part of mldonkey as well.

IMHO this whole talk is just silly. If kde people have problems with p2p apps 
then move kmldonkey out of keg so this silly talk can just stop.

Surely not, mldonkey connects to it as well and keeps a list of clients to 
connect to so the only thing changing is that the clients exchange lists 
between eachother.
