what I'm wondering about: there is kde-cvs, you can monitor each and every 
commit and those connectors are somehow a really basic feature, so someone 
should have noticed this really soon, no?

Working on KDE CVS gives you some responsibility, especially when working on 
other people's code. But maintaining an application in CVS also means taking 
the responsibility to have a look at it once in a while, especially before a 
release, not after.

I really dislike putting ACLs onto all sorts of modules, where just a handful 
of people have access. (I agree that the www module is special tho.) It's 
just the wrong solution for the problem here.

Cheers,
Carsten Pfeiffer
