The article shows KDE in a good light, even if this particular fact is 
wrong. From my experience, Ingrid Marson is not the type of reporter who 
enjoys to show Open Source projects in a bad light.

My impression of her work was rather positive. I was interviewed at 
aKademy, together with Aaron, and in the article about our Unix 
Accessibility Forum ("KDE Developers Focus on Accessibility") gave a good 
summary of the points that I had mentioned. And all articles that I have 
read from her are friendly towards KDE.

But that article was really nice. And IMHO she didn't misquote Aaron at 
all. OK, maybe it was a bit catchy, but isn't this the job of 
journalists?
