Re: KDE websites offline

I thought they had tons of "corporate" sponsors, i read an article a couple months ago about this, surely they can afford bandwidth costs? seems kind of ridiculous to me.

I just realized that.  Both kde.org and kde-apps.org are working.  I ended up at kde.com by following a link. :?
