Hi

I fully respect the decision of Ivan to not backport KDE 2.2 to 
potato, although I still use potato with KDE 2.1.2.

I think packaging is far more complicate as compiling ourself. In 
many cases for me (who has no deep insight inside packaging) it is 
the way to go, although it's not very elegant.
If you don't think so please pack up KDE-2.2 and provide it.

Other question: if I insist on a most stable environment what am I 
missing if I still use KDE 2.1.2, except the good feeling to help 
improving KDE with bugreports? My impression of the last weeks's 
discussions is that (at the moment) KDE 2.2 ist not es stable as KDE 
2.1.2. Same thing with KDE 2.0. It was not verry stable and got much 
better with later versions. So I hope maybe a bugfixed version of 
KDE-2.2 will make it into woody.

I have to remember that, thanks.
