We prefer it that way as well, of course, since we are KDE people, even if 
it's our job now, and luckily our customers have realized that it is also in 
their best interest to be part of the mainline KDE development as much as 
possible, and to make sure that everything ends up upstream. That they 
understand this now and are willing to invest in maintenance, stability and 
refactoring, not just new features, is largely due to the dilligent and 
persistant explanations and guidance of our partners in the Kolab Konsortium 
at Intevation (http://www.intevation.de/index_en.html).

They (and more specifically Bernhard Reiter, both as managing director of 
Intevation and as Germany coordinator for the FSFE (http://www.fsfeurope.org) 
are doing our community a great service by educating commercial and public 
administration entities on how to be good Free Software and KDE citicens. 
There's more to it than throwing money around, and it's not something that is 
easy to get large organisatiaons to learn. 

So folks, in case you were looking for a way to contribute financially to Free 
Software and the long term health of our ecosystem, please consider helping 
the Free Software Foundation Europe fund it's very important work.

Cheers,

Till
