Questions Continue About The KDE League

OrangeSpyderMan writes "Here is a further piece by Dennis E. Powell ("DEP"), the other is an editorial, submitted simply by "staff". They make interesting reading, and add a lot of info to the story previously reported Of particular insterest is an apparent clarification of the tax status of the league, which, if anything, serves to complicate a little further the true role of the league, as the editorial goes on to explain. Basically the "staff" appear to wonder if it wouldn't have been more productive to give the $170,000 that the League appears to have collected (or be owed) directly to the KDE project."

Re:Deps original article re: KDE, Israel + Palesti

The thread where dep realized KDE-developers are nazis and anti-semites? It's right here:

Basically, few KDE-developers disagree with some of Israels policies regarding the Palestinians. But that does not make them in to nazis.

I espesially like this quote (by dep himself):

"it is always ironic to see german nationals, like members of AA who fall off the wagon from time to time, come out foursquare against genocide -- as if everyone *except* them has committed it -- unless the situation involves a new attempt to exterminate those who germany tried and failed to exterminate."

Gee dep, that sure is mature of you...

In short, deps problem with KDE-project is this: He's annoyed because few KDE-developers dared to disagree with Israel on a off-topic mailinglist. he's also annoyed when those same developers didn't want to get down on all fours and kiss USA's ass.
