I knew that all along. ;-)  What has thrown me off of that project for a
while was the way they wanted it done.  Whereas I created a new TDE
integration module from the KDE3 sources, they want some kind of hacked-up
"frankenmodule" that supports both KDE3 and TDE.

For now I have the patch for the new TDE module (applies against LO GIT)
in the TDE GIT tree.  I am not exactly sure how to proceed, as I am still
convinced maintaining the combined module could be a real nuisance for all
parties involved.
