Hi Ali,

Somehow I just received your mail today and I guess I'm not the only one. It 
happens frequently that KDE mailing lists lag for some days.

If you do not get any reply on this list I would suggest you trying the more 
focused kde-edu list:

kde-edu@kde.org

Anyway just don't feel discouraged by the long delay in 
the delivery of your mail.

Cheers,

Benoit
