this is something i didn't really intervene so far, mostly because i don't =

have strong opinions in.
Anyways, i would see useful to have a repo for the sdk related stuff and no=

necessarly strictly related to plasma.

i share the concerns for a repo called plasmatethat has the other tools in =
it, =

but that's just naming and shouldn't be distracting ;)

yeah, but disappointing indeed that all parts of kdesdk are still in svn, s=
ome =

of the apps still seem  to have regular commits, so is not even "because =

unmaintained"
in that repo there is something that i would definitely want, and something =

that maybe would be really time to let go or just left there in the svn rep=
o =

(cervisia? srsly? :p)

i would like again a repo like that with all needed (did i already mentione=
d =

i'm definitely not a fan of micro git repos?;)
that may include plsmate, plasma tools and some of the tools in kdesdk, =

intersection between those that make sense and those that who still work on =

them don't want a dedicated repo for it


Cheers, =
