As long as Roberto makes it clear that making such changes are unsupported,
and if anything breaks, you're on your own and get to keep the pieces...
That said, I would have much preferred that folks (like Roberto) who
want/need KDE3 made more effort to work *with* fedora and and the fedora
kde-sig to try to make sure everything is kosher. I've extended quite a few
invitations for such in the past... without any takers, so far. *shrug*.
Not that I was expecting any. I'll be honest to say that my ulterior motive
was that as soon as anyone took a look at this closely and seriously, they'd
soon find out how difficult (perhaps impossible) a problem it was...
