  That's very true. The apps shouldn't be political statements. If Neil would 
*really* think about the ramifications of his comments, he'd realize if they 
got accepted that there are probably at least five times more KDE developers 
that would end up posting things he disagrees strongly with.

  Best to keep the software apolitical as much as possible.
