Yeah, well I can also understand that.  I remain disappointed that koffice 
apps have not achieved the required level of reliability - which is very high.  
I'm afraid I must take at least as much blame having *not* contributed code

Perhaps this would be something to consider in the near future planning then?  
The Amorok developers seem to be very happy having moved to git.  And it does 
seem like it would help to minimise this kind of conflict.  If tools can do 
that then there is even more patience to go into coding ;-)
