I don't think theKompany is bad for trying to make money, I think they're 
bad when they sell people unfree software.  I had no problem with the 
Power Plant, for example.  I almost bought it, in fact.

I have nothing against Aethera, or Kivio, or kdb.

...and if thekompany stuck into kdelibs some kab ^ n that can unify a 
million apps' data, then I'd surely try to get Kit working with it, and 
therefore with Aethera.

Christians have a saying: love the sinner, hate the sin.  I don't have a 
problem with theKompany, I just hate their proprietary apps.
