Yes it is. The change to the mailing list address didn't affect the purpose
of the group.

This may be possible, but I couldn't find any useful functions to do this
in the KDE API documentation - I looked at the KWin and KWinModule classes
in the kdecore module, for example. The standard KDE documentation should
give you some hints:

http://developer.kde.org/documentation/library/3.3-api/kdecore/html/classes.html

However, you may need to resort to using DCOP to move windows, but note that
this will only work for KDE applications.

If you find any solutions to this, please let us know about them.
