hi..

while i understand peole's desire to see this in KDE (i would use TOra on a 
daily basis if it had pgsql support) there are probably a few things to be 
considered:

 o it isn't a KDE app, it is Qt only (KDE-ifying it would be great)
 o 100k LOC is not small (kpresenter is around, what, 20k LOC? kword ~22k?)
 o the audience interested in such an app is probably a small % of KDE's 
total audience (as opposed to word processing, presentation software, etc)

IMO, due to this combination of facts TOra would be best maintained outside 
of KDE's CVS just as many other high-quality, large, niche-audience apps are.

hightening its profile by making it a KDE / KOffice app and having it noted 
on the koffice.org website, apps.kde.com, etc might be a better approach?

$0.02 (canadian pennies at that...)
