Hi all,

sorry, I didn't want to post within this thread.
I recently talked to Agnieszka about tha issue. I think we have different 
oppinions about that, but IMHO that's not really a problem.
If the majority votes for that cover or whatever, I will be the last who 
would try to block it or whatever.
But, like somebody else pointed out before, IMHO if only _one_ person (in 
this case: woman) feels offended by something, it should be done in another 
way!

If this was done like e.g. on c't-covers (big german computer magazine), I 
mean in a good artwork, why not?
Only because other Magazines do something, it doesn't mean kdezine also has 
to do it. KDE doesn't implement Smarttags, only because another big "Desktop 
Enviroment" uses it, for example.

Note, this doesn't mean that _everything_ has to be different.

Err, I'm jus wondering, when and how this decision was made. Darian, I 
understand very much, that it's very hard to get _any_ decision made within 
the zine Mailinglist / context, but IMHO should such "big" decisions like the 
cover of the _first_ issue be decided in the whole community. If there is a 
mail like "please decide" and nobody answers to it, OK, then this is "not a 
no" == "yes", but without any question....

Greetings,
DD
