Yeah well, who may that be? I myself am busy with GTk+ and Gnome stuff, but
I would be happy to start to try to get KDE up and running without too much
patches and provide feedback to them as well as get them interested for
`our goal' so to speak. (Yeah, ports has KDE, I prefer the old-fashion way
at times though)

So if nobody steps forward in the next week (this week) to proclaim to be
the KDE-meister then I am going to poke the KDE developers awake...

TPTB? The Powers That Be? If so, what does Core have to say about this? I
reckon that what you call `default desktop' will be an option in sysinstall
and not a automatic thing that gets installed when X gets installed ;)
