excuse me?
by Anonymous on Saturday 29/Sep/2007, @10:46
Who what when and where was the name changed? I thought I was on every KDE list known to man and I have not seen how or when this decision was made. Please clarify.

The KDE eV mailing list is not public. The KDE eV is there to handle organizational and "business" matters, well, about anything which needs a legal entity. It doesn't have much power apart from that, which is a good thing I think. Many members of the core KDE community are members of the eV.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eingetragener_Verein for an explanation of the eV acronym.

    The KDE e.V. has not been involved in this decision.

    It was a decision by the KDE News team and by the aKademy organisers.

      Well, I can say that it wasn't a decision by the KDE News team as you put it -- at least, I didn't see anything about it on the dot list so there was no official decision involved as far as I know.

      This is something for the e.V. to decide IMHO.
