Don't worry, it will happen soon enough.

As usual, just not at the same rate as before, temporarily.

Sorry for the inconvenience. What about concentrating on one app then, instead
of trying to get everything compiled? Leave global testing to those with enough
bandwidth/CPU, until Monday.

So you complain that KDE is getting worked on? Yes, the development rate is much
bigger than before, temporarily, but apart from that....... I don't get it.
Should all KDE development just stop, or slow down again? Is that what you're really saying?
Or just that commits should be done more carefully? If it's just then I would agree,
people have to be a bit more careful, that's all.
