First of all debian-devel is not debian-announce.  -devel is a develpment
discussion list.

Secondly I don't remember that I said something about -announce.  To be
honest I was hardly able to follow the discussion and since I had to do
real work where I had to pass a deadline I had to quit.  According to
my logfile (which I fortunately made) I only said these two sentences
with regard to the kde discussion:

Since I'm not familiar with the core kde team I don't remember your name.
You would probably not remember my name either although some people think
that I'm important for Debian and in the 'core' part of Debian.
