That's ok, as I said you can "criticize it as much as you want".
This introduction makes me feel you think I'm disappointed by "all" the
critics you made. I don't know if I'm right here but I would say : not at
all! I'm not offended by that. My English is not that good, so maybe
sometimes my answers seem to be too much direct and rude. Which perhaps have
led you to believe this...
I have to say to make things clear here : I really appreciate feedbacks and
critics (as long as they are constructive, which includes yours of course
;-)

Ok that's something that didn't struck me first but this part needs to be
rewritten.

I gave you some blog posts I read but I forgot to tell you can watch the KDE
UserBase to pick some information about Plasma and Activities (
http://userbase.kde.org/Plasma). I will add a link and rewrite that section
as I promised in my last mail.

As usual, I will send a mail to this list when it's done so that you and
other people can review and correct it. And also criticize it :-)
