There has been a misunderstanding, but we've cleared everything out. Riccardo has always been a lot like my younger brother in KDE (not that I have one in real life -- that makes it all the more special). A lot to be learned from one another, but sometimes, things *do* get understood the wrong way. Just taking some time for a good dialog does wonders, especially in hasty times. So for those worrying after reading the above blog, we're fine :) Also a hug from my side. There has been a misunderstanding, but we’ve cleared everything out.

I don't know what happened as I'm currently out of the loop, but it happens that people with different opinions care about the same thing, there will be disagreements (coming in all forms and sizes). When pushing your work with lots of effort and good arguments is not enough, the common "other option" is to retreat and/or focus on stuff where the whole world doesn't work against you. Just find something you like to do instead (either as short-term interim solution, or for a longer time, depends on you), and you'll be fine :) Really, KDE is a better place thanks to you. No one can take that away from you anymore, whatever might happen in the future. I noticed this myself; it’s easier to blog when I’m down than when I’m up and healthy.

If you are feeling burnt out then take a break for a bit and remember that there are a lot of people who dig your work. Also, your mouse cursor is the best I've ever seen on any platform!
