Hm. At least a finished implementation of all functionality to debug
your application:
- direct gdb support (creating valid breakpoints, for example)
- support for the syslog daemon
- tons of different assertions
- support for different logging mechanisms with definable message
handlers

I did. 
Most of it is done, I currently simply wait for Krash to be released and
then it will be added. I plan to add it as a subdirectory to kdelibs,
since nana is a dynamic library (at least we will use one of it).
Until now I planned not to change kdebug much, but possibly it is better
to replace it, since most features of it are directly supported by nana.
Does anybody know how far kdebug is used outside the KDE repository?
Greetings,
