I thought we *did* make it work.  I think I did that myself, didn't I?  
Instead of going to some bugzilla thing, it's supposed to generate a form 
that encourages people to send a message to this list from the inside of a 
dialog box.  It was the best I could do, since I couldn't seem to turn it 
off.

Looking now, it does indeed seem to be broken.  It says it's going to send to 
this list, but then KDE's bug thing rejects it because we're not a real KDE 
app.

Hrm.

OK, KMidiMon has the same thing we have, and its Report Bug doesn't work 
either.  It's supposed to mail to Pedro directly, but it yields the same crap 
message from somewhere.kde.org about an illegal whatever.

I think KDE is built around the idea that everybody will eventually want their 
app to join the fold, and be part of the biggest package in the universe.

You know, thinking back, I had some exchange with someone at KDE over this, 
and I was supposed to send them a patch to make all of this less 
objectionable for those of us who never intend to move under the KDE 
umbrella.  Nothing ever came of it, obviously.

So, in short, I don't think we can fix it, and we can't get rid of it without 
considerable effort.  Or we couldn't umpty KDE versions ago anyway.
