IF IT AIN'T BROKEN DON'T FIX IT

IF YOU FIX THINGS WHICH WAS NOT BROKEN UNTIL THEY ARE BROKEN
FIX THEM BACK ASAP IF YOU DO NOT WANT COMPLAINTS

this way developemnt works and this way quality looks
independent freeware/paid development
if changes are breaking things which worked they have
to be reverted or improved without spit in the face of the 
users for months and years because nothing happens

Fedora and only with unofficeial repos i got 4.7 because it will NOT be 
released for F14/F15, so if you make new bugs you should not fix 
them only some major releases later

anyways - you will not try to tell me that i need a new operating
system because some stupid guy broke something in 4.6 and nobody
will fix it in 4.6?

so why do the developers do not left fuck in peace working
things instead fixing working things until they broken?

nobody needed any replacement of kfind - not in dolphin nor in konqueror

breaking things with useless changes has nothing to do with money

the problem is that 4.0 was released way too soon, communicated
as development release way too late so some distributions had
changed too much (fedora was one of them) and it took YEARS
to call KDE useable again, and now while things start to work 
instead optimizing them some stupid people are replacing
things without any thoughts what they are doing

* WHY is rename in folder-views inline instead as a popup?
  you will never see the full name in this inline crap
  why was this changed and optimized until it is broken

* https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=270414
  how braindead can a developer act to not see this
  before the relase?

* https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=236025
  what idiotic discussion because somebody started a rewrite
  and pushed it to stable-versions while the old kIO worked
  like a charm

* widgets can not be placed and resized on their corners
  they are simply a usibilty desaster, EVERYTIME i touch one
  this idiotic mouseover for move/resize of the neighbour
  widget steals my focus and the wrong is removed - nobody
  cares about usability

if there would not be permanently working things fixed until they 
are broken or have degraded usability there would not be so much
complaints like mine

IF IT AIN'T BROKEN DON'T FIX IT
