Be patient Kurt, be patient -- Nobody will hurry us and your nice article 
has made quite clear that it is *not* KDE 1.1.1 that should be compared

How many people died during these accidents.  And I don't
think that they're very good for making PR. We don't want to 
be "circus-clowns" nor do we want that people will continue to 
use these names for the stable versions, do we? 

KO 1 could also be interpreted as Koffice version 1.
Anybody with a more serious idea that makes still some PR?
