Yep, several of us have access to post it but it'd be best to only have one
such "final" copy up there.  Please let us know when you're tired of our
feedback (or just don't have time to work on it any further) and we can post
it ;-)

&gt;<br>
&gt; So... I claimed an other task (GCI) and put all myself into this producing<br>

&gt; I&#39;d like to say that making this video and working with kde community \

since I<br> &gt; was born. Maybe I&#39;m only a crazy sensitive person but in this \
community<br> &gt; I&#39;ve found something unique. This work also gave me the \
opportunity to<br> &gt; meet new people, to change my mind and to &quot;dance&quot; \
in life making something<br> &gt; completely new and different. It gave me an \
alternative to uniformity and<br> &gt; a chance to completely change my life and my \

&gt;<br>
