Some of the more important lists that users might be interested in are: kde This is the main &kde; mailing list for general discussions. kde-announce This list is used to announce new versions of &kde; as well as new tools and applications. kde-look This is the list that deals with questions about look and feel, and general user interface considerations.

How do I subscribe/unsubscribe to these lists? To subscribe, send an email to list-request, that is: kde-request@kde.org kde-announce-request@kde.org kde-user-request@kde.org kde-look-request@kde.org The email must contain subscribe your_email_address in the subject. To unsubscribe, send an email to list-request, that is: kde-request@kde.org kde-announce-request@kde.org kde-user-request@kde.org kde-look-request@kde.org The email must contain unsubscribe your_email_address in the subject.

There is also a complete list of all &kde;-related mailing lists, and a web interface for subscribing and unsubscribing located at http://master.kde.org/mailman/listinfo. Is there a mailing list archive? Yes, there is a searchable mailing list archive hosted by Progressive Computer Concepts. The &URL; is http://lists.kde.org. There you will see a folder listing of the mailing lists. Note that you can only do a subject/author search at this level. You probably will not find what you want doing this kind of search. To do a body search, you have to enter one of the mailing lists. Just click on the folder you want to search (⪚ kde or kde-user) and then the pull-down menu by the search box will default to Body searches. To be thorough, you should probably search the kde, kde-user, and kde-devel folders. Is there a newsgroup about &kde;? Yes, there is! It is at comp.windows.x.kde.
