there really weren't that many fundamental API = changes from 2.2. to 3.1. some
header files changed, but nothing too egregious... = just make sure you are use
kapplication.h instead of kapp.h and that sort of = thing... but the basic
concepts (KConfig, XMLUI, KAboutData, KApplication, = KMainWindow, etc) all
remained. some KDE2 applications required nothing = more than a recompile for
KDE3. there is lots of KDE3 code to look at for = examples, and there is up-to-
date API documentation at developer.kde.org.

also, if you have a full-time connection to the 'net, = you can jump on IRC
(freenode.net) and join one of the KDE devel = channels (e.g. #kde-devel) where
quite a few people hang out discussion KDE3 = development issues...
