I wonder how the will manage it to be added if there is only support for Linux planned.

So I do suggest that trying to get > KreateCD incorporated in the KDE CVS is a good idea. >=20 We were asked if we want to add kreatecd into the KDE CVS and there was some discussion about that in IRC. We (kreatecd developers) discussed about that and we finally agreed that we don't want to be in KDE CVS. Since then we didn't change our minds. The addition of KOnCD could be a reason to think about that again.=20 If at any time - now or later - anybody of the development team thinks we should change or minds, he should it post here at the mailing list and we could start discussion.
