Yes I know, but unfortunately I get name clashes with KParts in classes
like Kis::Doc.
IMO its very bad to name classes in kdelibs "View" "Shell" or "Doc". Can
this be moved into a namespace for the new kparts or at least make it
use a class prefix like "KP"? I'm going to rename my stuff to
"Kis::_Doc" for now.

By the way, I don't like the fact that KDE is using namespaces _and_
class prefixes. Can we agree on a standard to use only namespaces _or_
prefixes. With namespace support in most modern c++ compilers I vote for
namespaces.


Greetings, Matthias
