Good idea--I am attempting to get this implemented ASAP.

No, Gmail has ALWAYS top posted be default. As I'm assuming you noticed, we were discussing the whole top-posting versus bottom-posting issue, but your messages are still top-posted. Please start bottom-posting. We keep repeating that because it makes things very disorganized when we have people both top posting and bottom posting. So please start bottom posting.

I haven been unable to get Vector working on my machine. I tried the Kde-classic version of their 6.0 release, and I had issues with sound, wireless, and the intel video driver. I've been unable to run Yoper as well with frequent kernel panics and a mix of RPM4 and RPM5 in their repos. Ark Linux 2008.1 is too outdated for my laptop, and dockyard-devel has a huge dependency mess in the repos (I'm going to keep pestering bero to fix stuff so I can build Trinity). Of the major distros, the one that works the best is Debian, and I am stuck using the beta for Squeeze for it's support of more recent hardware. It's UI has been rather unstable, though, and there are times that I have to drop down to runlevel 3 and bump back up to 5 to restart all the GUI stuff. I haven't had any kind of luck with any other distros as of yet.

Good news is, I finally have a semi-working install of Ark dokcyard-devel on my laptop, and I am downloading the Trinity 3.5.12 tarballs and Ark's SRPMs for KDE 3.5 from 2008.1 to adapt the specs to Trinity. I'll also make sure to go after bero to get stuff fixed so we can actually start testing. I'll even try to apply Kate's menu system to the packages in the Trinity tarballs.
