No need to think about strange reasons. You can follow the story, which was open and publicly discussed. This is the start of the Spectacle (KScreenGenie, initially) and the reason to write a new program (which uses relevant parts of the old code). https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-community/2015q2/001374.html This is the discussion about the renaming: https://marc.info/?l=kde-core-devel&m=144025072413294&w=2 Apart from this, please don't use "shitty" and "idiotic" anymore here, even if referred to a name. This is just an opinion and it may likely not be generally shared. -- Luigi _______________________________________________ kde mailing list -- kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kde-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
