So now I'm being told to go away and use something else and that it's
useless to have a voice in this community? Do you speak for the devs?

KDE3 is in 11.0, and it will be in 11.1. That means another two years of
supported KDE3. It is there, so being told to keep using kde3 in no way
translates as "go away"

Beyond those two years, upstream kde.org has already ended development of
kde3, so all work will be in the hands of the distributions. And as far as I
know, no distribution will keep kde3. Ubuntu has already dropped it.

Since this is a community, why don't you form an interest group that maintains
the kde3 packages through the build service. It might even make it into the
distribution through that new "contrib" thing they've done.
