If you place it into "community" section in the release notes, this would look like the rest of the distro is not by community, which is wrong.
Well, openSUSE´s still mainly driven by SUSE, right? It´s more about that *you* support KDE3 in your spare time, you´re don´t getting money for it (or do you?). It´s a hobby for you. Whereas the KDE4 guys get support right from SUSE (Will is working for SUSE, other team members also)
Of course, openSUSE is a community project but until there isn´t a foundation, it´s still a part of SUSE (which is wrong again, It will stay a part with the foundation also because SUSE will stay pay there "project workers".)
Do you think this division of openSUSE projects by the criterion whether the maintainer is paid full-time by SUSE is beneficial? Are the Xfce and LXDE maintainers also paid full-time?
No they are not. Who gets paid for what is immaterial don't let those that are caught up in incorrect perceptions tell you otherwise.
