KDE/LinuxWorld-Apology to LinuxWorld, Everyone Happy

Well, after yesterday's article about LinuxWorld and KDE, the facts have come to light-it wasn't LinuxWorld at all. The following is a letter from Bernd Wuebben, KDE contact in the USA: "A previously posted news bit on stated that the KDE project was asked to pay $1500 for a booth at Linux World. This statement is incorrect. The truth is that the KDE project was asked by a representative of the Linux _Expo_ (Note: NOT Linux World) whether we would like to have a booth at the Linux Expo. We communicated our interest and were told that Linux Expo would be happy to give us a booth for the price of $1500. While I do not know who 'leaked' internal information in distorted incorrect form to slashdot, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to Linux World in the name of the KDE project. Linux World and its organizers have been very supportive of KDE and in particulare ask/invited us to attend Linux World.". Whew-that makes a whole lot more sense. (CT: the news bit from KDEs site has disappeared without explanation.)
