Yes! I am really excited and happy that you've been committing a lot
of stuff lately. Not overly complicated stuff, but things like
renaming, branding issues, and small fixes. This is awesome! It lets
Tim stay focused on major issues, while solving the more minor (but
still important) problems. For that I thank you!

Unfortunately, (Embarassingly?) I do not have a running GIT system.
Now that David Rankin has finished successfully building arch and TDE
I will spend some time getting a git system running on my computer.
The problem is that I use TDE for my work - so I don't want to break
it :p

Luckily this patch is just implementing a small configuration option
related to bug 251. Should be easy enough to use my 3.5.13 sources and
not break anything.


> To all: after building from the latest GIT you notice other branding issues, please post a note to the list and I'll try to fix the problem ASAP.

have you tried to just grep for all strings related to KDE? I found a
regular grep doesn't work well, but doing a pipe helps

grep "i18n" * -r | grep "KDE"

this will show all the KDE's in any string recursively.
