As AlanE says, Keramik *will* be part of KDE 3.1, due before the end of the year.

I don't personally like the style, but that's another issue ;) A. -- Andy Fawcett | "In an open world without walls and fences, andy@athame.co.uk | we wouldn't need Windows and Gates." tap@lspace.org | -- anon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
