Yes, i think the original email comes from a bit of misunderstanding on how= we=20 work. We are not a top-down organization. There is hardly an "official" anything in KDE.=20 We have dolphin but we also have krusader, sure one ships with KDE Gear and= =20 the other doesn't but that's more a release schedule decision than one bein= g=20 more official than the other. We have gwenview and koko, both shipping in KDE Gear. And more and more examples. So unless the people working on kdesrc-build want people to stop=20 using that and no one else steps up to work on it kdesrc-build will be as=20 "official" as it is today, 0% official and 100% official at the same time.
