At Konversation we talk to translators fairly regu- larly, and most I've met cover trunk only, and don't concern themselves with branches. Thus losing trans- lation coverage is my prime concern. Konversation is being actively developed for KDE 3.x; we won't start porting to KDE 4 until next year. I.e. the trunk codebase, after branching for KDE3, would languish, possibly fooling translators into thinking we're just not doing anything anymore. Personally, I don't see a real need to branch all of keg for KDE3 and switch trunk completely to KDE4 - keg doesn't do unified releases, and as we've seen in this thread, definitely not all apps are ready to switch to KDE4 development yet. Thus it makes more sense for those apps that are ready to work in kde4 branches of their own IMHO. -- Regards, Eike Hein, hein@kde.org _______________________________________________ Kde-extra-gear mailing list Kde-extra-gear@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-extra-gear
