Finally, if I may suggest a more useful way to please the diehards while making openSUSE unique: just port KDE 3 kdesktop and kicker to KDE 4, provide it as an alternate KDE 4 desktop shell in KDE:Extra.

I think all this effort would be better spent finalizing the missing functionality of KDE4 apps.
I remember an early interview or press-release by KDE4 team where they firmly insisted that kicker will never be ported to KDE4. Thus making KDE3 out of KDE4 will probably be against the will of the KDE4 team.
Like kaffeine, I miss kaffeine3, which was complete, a decent media player. Kaffeine4 doesn't even have a way to switch subtitles, which is ridiculous.
In 12.1 you can install kde3-kaffeine from the main repo. Many people miss this application.
All this effort in KDE3 would be better spent in trying to fill those huge gaps in KDE4 functionality, IMO.
As or me I have no skills and no interest in doing so. Possibly you could find others who are willing to do this task. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
