Hey Albert, I realise it is too late to stop the email blast, but could we 
make one small modification to the text on the web and change

"we have made the KDE Applications suite less prone to glitches and much 
friendlier to use."

to

"we have made the KDE Applications suite less prone to glitches and much 
friendlier."

please?

Otherwise there is a redundancy in that paragraph and it reads badly.
