My kde-look experience is quite limited: No coders, just people asking for
really useless features & bloat. kde-look basically keeps the mad people away
from the serious lists, which is a Good Thing.

The forwarded post on kde-core just asks for a "choice", whatever that
may be -- it didn't ask for anything specific. It was =you= who crossposted
there and started a useless albeit short thread.

And now to the thread on kde-devel: You seem to have missed the point!
There was no discussion about colored and animated mouse pointers, but
a request for =white= cursors. The poster claimed to speak for a group of
visually impaired people. I read a similar request from an almost blind man
on the SuSE mail list who wanted =big= =white= cursors, and I =do= think that
KDE should be improved for these people, too.

I would be really thankful, if you could "fix" blind people. =That= would
be productive. Your cross posts weren't.
