Wonder how long until the water bottling plant is built next to the lake.
Does that mean the hole has to be deeper than 800' for the nuclear weapon?
I've got to say the best run project I've participated in has been the Teensy 3.0 by Paul Stoffregen.

He kept everybody informed at least weekly during the project and shipped a quality product on time.
Of course for every great project there are less great projects that made big promises and due to various factors haven't been able to keep them -- like the Pebble Watch.
You do seem indicative of a lot of the KDE users I've met. The general feeling is that KDE shouldn't be used by developers.
Maybe it is considered advanced for KDE4. Many apps such as Konsole in KDE4 all purport to support this advanced option in their help - so it could be argued that it is a bug in KDE4 and not a new feature.
As for it being basic - I've been using it in X for 20+ years. I guess I'd consider it more primitive than advanced. KDE3 had great support for it.
I've looked at KWin Rules before. From the provided examples and trying it I didn't see an obvious way to handle my use scenario - perhaps you can suggest the appropriate technique or point me at an example that works similar to below:
- Specify a specific profile -- call it "ProjectA"
- Provide an ICON or some other method for starting ProjectA
- When started the following happens
-- 6 konsole windows are opened
--- each with separate geometry for placement and size
--- each with different titles
--- each has a specified home directory to start in
--- one starts cscope
--- 2 start VIM
--- 1 starts an ssh to a target machine
--- 1 is tailing a log file
-- 1 firefox window is opened
--- specific geometry for placement and size
-- 1 custom app is opened
--- specific geometry for placement and size
Creating "ProjectB" should be an easy copy of "ProjectA" and allow for quick editing of window placement, rules, etc.
It should be trivial to copy these rule sets to another machine.
Take a look at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147094 for the use cases.
In case you can't be bothered -- my use case is having a shell script that opens up several windows (konsole and other tools) as my dev environment in a standard way. The konsoles are put into the appropriate directories, commands executed in certain windows (cscope, etc..). The konsole windows are not all of the same size. And mixing in the other tools precludes using the built in (but very restrictive) Konsole profile capabilities.
This functionality worked great in KDE3 (and all the X WMs I used for many years before that).
So corner case? No. Missing functionality? Yes.
I guess if all you do is browse the web and write emails that this wouldn't be a very important feature.
All these new features into KDE and the developers still won't (can't?) fix a 4+ year old bug that is about basic functionality -- that of honoring the -geometry command line option.
Please vote for this bug to be fixed!

Interesting -- thanks for the great info!
Is the return of the capsule basically identical to how Baumgartner comes back? So the same basic landing zone?
What happens to the capsule after he jumps out? Obviously the balloon will pop and then it'll be a streamer behind the capsule as it plummets downward. It'd probably be less than optimal to have that land on your house/car/you. Yes -- the odds are against it but where is it supposed to land? Or does it destruct?
If they implemented this would the muslim countries enforce it on their people? All those statements about christianity they love to make.
There is big pressure to not relax the 3oz rule. From the vendors in the airports. The 3oz rule is perfect for vendors because they have a monopoly on selling you overpriced drinks.
This was all covered in the Troy Rising series by John Ringo. Turns out that maple syrup is highly intoxicating to the Glatun species.
