[Kde-games-devel] KDE4.3, a Job well done.

[Dan Leinir Turthra Jensen]

Well, for what it's worth, Kollide.net may well be able to help out with this 
as well :) It was originally set up for Amarok's web hosting, but is now 
available for any KDE related project :) And, well, something like this, which 
increases the usefulness and niftiness of KDE games, if that isn't KDE 
related, i don't know what is ;)
