On this note I urge users not to install anything from the KDE:KDE3
repository, as there is no peer review whatsoever of the overall
cobbled-together codebase that Ilya is building binaries from.  This is
not safe, not good practice, and I really have no idea how long KDE:KDE3
will survive cut off from the rest of the FOSS community.  You will likely
not receive updates or new features from upstream projects such as TDE.  I
would in fact encourage those who cannot use TDE to use XFCE, KDE4, or
Gnome, as these are much safer alternatives with central, publicly
viewable source repositories.

This is the exact attitude that prompted me to ban you earlier.  Obviously
that is not an option, but it appears nothing has changed.
