Feedback:

From Michael Gunz:

Hello,

I use kubuntu 15.04 – 15.10 now for several months and had tried before ubuntu (unity), opensuse, elementary OS, debian during the last 4 years.

You have done a great job, for me KDE Plasma 5 with ubuntu is the most beautiful, user friendly computing ever since i started in 1990 with Dos 4.0 an a 286er intel computer.

I really estimate your efforts and hope you carry on.

Sincerely, Michael Gunz
