Unlike copyright the patent concept is easy to defend. The benefit for progress of engineering and technological culture can be logically demonstrated From http://www.uspto.gov/go/taf/us_stat.htm, 173,771 Utility Patent Grants

Seriously, KDE is very friendly to developers. You don't need Kdevelop. Just a bunch of Kate and konsole sessions, spread over many desktops. And kompose to have immediate access on any of them. Also, the ability to launch immediately a konsole on any directory(F4 now ctrl-t on older versions) is invaluable. And other than that vim for quick editing of project files(Makefiles, configure scripts, etc...) And yakuake can come in handy, since it is an unobstrusive and easy way to run commands. Other than that,a healthy mix of traditional unix tools(cat, grep and sed is what I use mostly) and a couple of python scripts to automate some tasks and even create on the fly graphical components with Tk, to ease the management of your project.
..that it is the subject that defines the response time.
As long there is something to be earned everyone will respond quickly.
When I get a bug report I always try to reply ASAP. Even if I have no clue on what the problem is,
I respond with a guess and the assurance that I will look into the problem.
Thus I improve the chances of getting into a meningfull conversation and sorten out the details of the problem.
On the other hand, I still have responded to my Free For Life P0rn Membership,
Update Paypal Account, or Internet Lottery Awards mails...
