It was handy to mail people by groups. Separates are the best for me, thank you. I can see the advantage of integrating the two apps so that they can share code, etc., but it would be a good idea to be able to bring it up in mail or news mode so that you only see the interface you need. For those that use both Kmail and Knode, the combined interface would be nice, but those who only use one or the other don't need to clutter the interface with functions they will never use. Then we would have a good multipurpose mail application.
Help is underway.
Not that there are that many bugs, but you get the idea. After this has been done, THEN we can look again at making KMail and KNode one app, or leaving them, or creating a new app altogether. X handles the actual fonts, the fontmanager is just a frontend. Ich, Quicktime is the most proprietarily awful toolkit in the universe. I wouldn't mind a plugin, but Quicktime itself is a bad thing for a non-apple OS to become at all reliant on.
