Really? Not only do we admit things are buggy but we fix them. You should see 
the number of Plasma bug reports and look how they are dealt with. Those 
reports come directly to our mailing list and a tremendous effort is made to 
deal with them. Users are asked to provide more info when necessary and they 
do so (thanks to you!), bugs are fixed, an incredible number of them! You can 
report wished via bugzilla as well.
In fact I think it is the first time in all my KDE life that I witness such an 
effort.

James, it is sad that you carry on and on stating that sort of things.

As for the bullying, Mark's first post on the "fork" thread is not what I 
would call very friendly and respectful. 

Best regards,

Anne-Marie
