> It's no longer KDE, but Plasma which is part of the kde project
I'm sorry, but you just unwittingly confirmed our decision, because expressing
this was precisely the point of the change.
Plasma has been its own brand for years now, but it was difficult to establish
it as long as the KDE logo was still much more present than the Plasma logo in
the desktop itself.
If the change makes you see Plasma as an independent brand which is just part
of the KDE project (we use the term "community") then we have succeeded.
As for the description problem: Why not try "The button on the lower-left
corner of your screen?" Much easier than "The button with the K and the gear",
and if your family members have managed to move it somewhere else, chances are
they know enough to identify it as "The launcher icon" as well.
Also, most distributions replace the launcher icon with their own logo, anyway,
so it's not a good way to identify the button in the first place.
