Yeah, the tools.... I agree not to ask much from the client. What about the
server side? Is there PHP3, Perl, mod_perl or Zope? Is there a DBMS? Once I know
that I can set up a httpd on zeus.sas.co.th. Who is the admin of the koffice
box, anyway?

With server side scripting, we can do neat things like 
- polls
- a knowledge base
- a base of useful koffice scripts
- bug tracking system or trouble ticket

and, if that is agreed on, "commercial" things like:

- a board where companies can post problems, service requests or the like:
   KDE wizards can then react on such a posting, offering a price for this
   service. Similar to the "SourceExchange", but for smaller or company
   specific things called "in house programming" 
        Example: retrieving data via 3270 from a DL/1 database running 
        on OS/390 and put it into a K-spreadsheet.
