I fully agree with reescf... I also want to add some perspective to the windows
issue:

IMHO KDEs Windows/OSX ports are a "nice to have" but I can't imagine that these
have significant user counts. It's the Linux desktop that draws in the most
users, I guess. This is especially true since Gnome2 is dead now.

On the other hand I can't imagine an OSX user who'd mainly use KDE - I wouldn't
know what for... The same is true for Windows. I use KDE for Windows only for
Kile and I don't care for printing. Under Linux this is a completely different
story though.

So I share reescfs concern and I'd really like to know - if it's true - what
justifies this stance. Why do the developers think Windows and OSX are so
important? Windows and OSX users WILL NOT use KDE as default desktop
environment. Don't know about OSX but in Windows one reason for this is that
the current implementation suffers from more fundamental flaws like the
mediocre installer and unstable runtime.
