I'm going to set up a kdetest locker in the dev cell for
experimentation with KDE version 2.  There are a few reasons for this:

	* We've run into a lot of dirt looking under the covers of
	  gnome.  I want to see how much similar dirt there is with
	  KDE.  Although there isn't much chance that Athena will do
	  anything significant with KDE, I think this is good as a
	  "due diligence" effort.

	* I want to see how much trouble it would be to set up a kde
	  locker which people could compile KDE applications (all
	  twelve of them) against.

	* My own personal edification.

	* I'm not too hosed right now.

Anyway, I thought I would give people a heads-up.
