17 I said it because I was told kde isn't even close to this 30 day window. I
18 should not even be asking why kde isn't even released. I feel kde should be
19 released and was trying to figure out how to get it done.

28 because I was told kde isn't ready simply because its not 30 days. your
29 telling me now its just a guidline, which is what I thought in the
30 beginning..
31
32 Its come back full circle.
33
34 Like I have said, over and over.. How can I get kde released? Celeb told me
35 its ready, he hasn't had time to repoman and blah blah. I am asking now, what
36 i can do to get it arched.. This is a positive discussion on how to move this
37 forward. If I can't do it, then so be it.

39 Thanks,
