KDE is fairly structured. Linux... I don't know. I do know that at one
time a very well known Alan slammed a very well known Linux for using
his inbox as a patch queue (funny isn't it, no offense Bruce). FreeBSD I
would think you would know better than I. However even Debian for all
of its warts is *very* structured.
