What is now called Rosegarden is actually based on what was Rosegarden 
4, IIRC. Before RG 4, there was earlier RG versions. Or something like 
that. I glanced at the Rosegarden website, it's been around since 1993, 
but I didn't find a real historical timeline. Somewhere along the way, 
it got renamed from Rosegarden4 back to just Rosegarden ...

Easter eggs in software aren't easy to figure out of you don't have or 
read the source code - so figuring them out might still be fun. ;-)

Don't you just love the way webmail clients magically multiply email 
addresses when they forward or reply? ;-)
