Well, yes, perhaps that's a better way of putting it. And the bugs that do
exist aren't usually showstoppers. My biggest beef with KNode is not
bugs, but rather "misfeatures" such as automatically setting the
Followup-To header, which has been annoying users for years and years.
This is such a trivial problem to fix, but has remained neglected for a
long time.

(Note that I'm not criticizing the KNode developers; I'm just lamenting the
fact that there clearly aren't enough active ones. I certainly have the C
programming skills necessary to fix some bugs, but unfortunately I don't
have time to learn Qt and familiarize myself with the KNode code base.
Even if I were to submit a patch, I'm skeptical as to whether it would
even be noticed and included in the next release.)

Tristan
