Hi, 

KDE3 is not lost, it lives in the Build Service now, in the KDE:KDE3 
repository. And it will stay there as long as somebody is still around  that 
cares enough to fix the build once in a while. 

However, reducing the number of packages being maintained in openSUSE is our 
way to focus on making the future KDE, KDE4 a better desktop for everyone who 
is interested in using it, and less like a change like from OSX to Vista. 

There are infinite things we could do, but unless somebody finds a way to make 
48 hours per day, we do have to focus at some point. 

Greetings,
Dirk
