"Flaming about this stuff really has to stop. Neither desktop is going away, and you are more than
welcome to use the one you prefer. But be rational about it: flipping out because some folks (me,
for instance) prefer one over another for architectural reasons isn't going to win KDE any converts at
this point."

Well, you did post quite debatable comments about KDE and GNOME, and when someone decided
to correct you, it's "flaming" and it "has to stop"? No, no-one has flamed anyone here. Someone
posted comments about something, and some other people disagreed with those comments, that's
all.

I might as well say that disparaging and untrue comments about KDE isn't going to win any converts
to GNOME at this point.
