Thank you. I assume that one can still do things like yum install evolution with the kde spin ? 2nd - firefox should probably be included or easy to yum install - its the de facto standard. 3rd - whilst I use kmail (kontact) and mostly like it I have some reservations - i am using it - almost exclusively - but: (a) it crashes (segv) a lot (imap) - bugs happen but response to fix things like this is very slow (bug reported july 2006 bug #128593) - this response to fix bugs worries me - its still in the same state. In fact, the only comments are to mark other bugs as dups - ie zero (zarro??) progress in fixing this critical bug ... and I think this may not be abnormal. (b) it cannot reply to html formatted mail without destroying the mail. In practice this makes it very hard to use in the corporate world. This has been an open request since err 2004 (bug #86423) - html is a fact of life - kmail is the only graphical MUA which cannot handle html. Even outlook does this right! So I somewhat reluctantly suggest evolution be added or easy to yum install for practical reasons - this may drag in some gnome libraries which is fine in my (obviously personal and biased) view. As long as folks can just install this anyway it probably doesn't matter. Evo is far from perfect too but ...
