True. :) The thing that I really took objection too is the fact that it was 
basically stated to Andy, "yes, we're porting khtml to kdom for kde 4", which 
isn't the case yet since we don't have a solid decision. I dislike it when 
people say something is going to be done even though no decision has been 
made. I think it's misleading and serves no purpose to tell somebody 
something which might happen (truth in advertising, so to speak). I probably 
should have been more clear on that part, but hey, the kfm-devel list is way 
more active now than it was a few days ago. ;)
