if you can't work with others in this project in a worthwhile way, then i'm 
fine with this. it would be unfortunate, but i'd rather not have hours of my 
time wasted and the frustration of dealing with an impetulant individual. 
this event is just a repeat of layouts, of panels .... there's a pattern here 
and i'm not happy with it.

i think we can certainly work it out. in fact i've been *trying* to do that by 
being patient and following up on your requests with corresponding action.

i'm not getting the same treatment in response. you may even notice that until 
this point i haven't pulled the "i'm the maintainer of plasma" card on you. 
i'm dissapointed i had to do that, even, since that should be implicit and 
something you can respect.

if you want to pack up and go away, that's your decision. there are a number 
of critical issues in konsole that are open that could use attention anyways, 
i just want to get on with getting plasma into a releasable condition.

btw, if anyone on this list disagrees with my assessments here, please speak 
up. it's completely possible i'm missing some part of the context here.
