Weekly announcment for

[Joseph E. Sacco, Ph.D.]

*FLAME OFF*

Be nice... [:-)] 

Life is about choices.  You may configure whatever desktop suits your
fancy.  There are many desktops to choose from. GNOME and KDE are only
two of the many choices.

For what it's worth... 
As reported earlier, I have successfully built KDE-3.4 using konstruct,
the GAR framework for KDE.  

	http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-3.4.php

KDE-3.4 is a large, complex desktop with lots of interesting toys. If
there is to be a YDL-4.0.2 release before YDL-5.0 is released, I would
like to see the version of KDE updated to 3.4.
