Yes, I see it now and then re-appearing on planet ;-)

Anyhow, it works a lot better than email, which are sometimes forgotton or hard to \
track, see for example Allens regular flood of reminders requesting the state of a \
mailed patch.

I see it working for Plasma and KDE-PIM, and I think no kittens will been killed for \
trying it for k-c-d too. But that's just IMHO.

Best,
