Thanks Albert, If you have not seen the complete post I'm including it 
so we don't have a misunderstanding. Thanks in advance for fixing this 
small problem.

Live CDs with KDE 3,

SimplyMEPIS Linux live CD with KDE: http://www.mepis.com/node/79.

Please change the link to: http://www.mepis.org .

Thank you.

On 08/21/2009 I sent the above to webmaster at kde.org and got back a reply:

Hello,

Thank you for contacting the KDE.org Web Team regarding
your mail about "Bad Link".

Your mail has been received and will be processed as soon as possible...

Today 09/08/2009 it was brought to my attention that instead of fixing 
the link with a simply copy and paste, it was completely taken down.

Well, you now have a bunch of disillusioned KDE users at Mepis making 
comments like "Why I'm not surprised that KDE people act this way.....".

I hate to see hard feelings between what I consider the best desktop and 
the best live installable cd.

If the link was put back up, I'm sure it would rectify the problem.

Thank you and I also thank you for the good/hard work being done with KDE4,
