On the other hand, it wouldn't be a bad idea to include the most popular (new) iconsets and themes by default. A poll on KDE-look could be used to find out which to include. Does anybody know whether there are plans to do something similar into KDE for e.g. http://www.kde.org and http://kde-apps.org to show (or even) download KDE and KDE-applications? Up to now I have seen kpackage's option for external sources and a search menu for rpms on kde-apps. I understand that depending on their distro people use YasT, apt, yum, emerge, etc. for updating applications. Why not offer the possibility to search/explore new KDE applications and download them to a local folder for installation. They should, however, be made aware of the fact that this can damage their system ;). Best regards, Claire
