Thanks, John, for the info. That looks very encouraging.
Someone else had mentioned it, but as being available for Ubuntu, which I had
read as only available on Ubuntu, and I did not wish to mix repositories.
This could be the deal-breaker that makes me switch to Ubuntu!
However. there is plenty of time still and Timothy Pearson is asking for bug
reports for bugs or enhancement requests. (I can see my first enhancement
request coming up!) So by the time support for KDE 3.5 ceases, there may be
a Debian repository or a tar.gz or deb available. :-)
