Thanks for clarifying Thomas. I am too busy to reply in full now and I've
realised now that I what I said could be misinterpreted. Hope I didn't
upset anyone!

Kind regards,

David

&gt; I&#39;d be very concerned about this, for any but the most basic components<br>
&gt; deeply entwined in the desktop shell (e..g things like knetworkmanager<br>

Just to clear things up: &quot;Made for Plasma&quot; was just one idea of many for the<br>
name of this, which, because we&#39;re all aware of the implications, is unlikely<br>
to be chosen in the end.<br>
We still have not found a good name yet (the problem with &quot;by KDE&quot; is that it<br>
would naturally apply to all KDE applications, but what we&#39;re looking for is a<br>
name we&#39;d only give to applications that fulfill certain criteria on top of<br>
being made by KDE).<br>
See the forum thread [1] for background and the current discussion.<br>
Input is still very much appreciated, as we&#39;re still kind of at a loss for a<br>
good name.<br>

Best,<br>
