Hi,

I very much agree with Annma. Let us keep the apps for 3.1, that were in 
before until we have something to replace them with. Who knows... we have 
great plans, but there were many great plans in history that never were 
accomplished ;-)
So let us keep apps that are reasonably good and useful and where we don't 
have a replacement for at the moment. Also translators already put work into 
them, so it wouldn't be very nice to remove them so short before a release.
Of course discussion is open again after the release.

About KGeo: Klass mentioned severe problems with KGeo. I don't have those, so 
I'd rather call it a specific bug. Since the KDE 3.0 version worked very well 
and there hasn't been any development in kgeo it must be a bug. Maybe you can 
try to find out more about it, Klas? At the moment kgeo has good 
functionality, is better tested, is translated  and probably has a number of 
users. So I'd say, we can discuss a replacement for KDE 3.2, but not for 3.1.  


So far :-)
eva
