I just loosely skimmed through this thread but was certainly very annoyed t=
o=20
receive it in my mailbox.

Regarding the topic of the thread, all what matters is that plasma, as a=20
framework, is more extensible and flexible than any other desktop=20
architecture. So if somebody is not happy about the current look or=20
functionality of the plasma desktop, it's easier than ever to fix it to sui=
t=20
your taste. For example, regarding desktop icons, if the current solution=20
with the FolderView applet doesn't satisfy you, then just modify that apple=
t=20
or write your own. Definitely easier and more powerful than modifying=20
KDesktop in KDE 3.5. Plasma even allows you to write your applet in your=20
favorite the scripting language.

Please guys remember these few things:
=2D don't take devs for granted.
=2D KDE is a very open project, very easy to join. If you'd like to become a
  plasma coder then just connect to #plasma on freenode and say you'd like =
to
  and people will help you get started. Or write to this list,
  or to panel-devel@kde.org, and introduce yourself and say you'd like to
  help. You'll be glad you've done that.
=2D if you're not happy about the current state of things, file bug reports.
=2D but if you care enough about it to send *dozens* of e-mails to this
  *developer's* mailing list, then do instead *fix it yourself*.
