I wonder what the purpose of such a mail is on a public mailinglist of the
KDE project? Regardless of your past experience, wether what you say holds
for everybody else too, this stuff belongs into a private mail to Spiro,
not on a public mailinglist IMHO. This doesn't help at all to improve the
situation with Qt's bugtracking.
