Hmmm, Knowing the code base of kdevelop I think this is wishful thinking.=
 It=20
_could_ be done, but then you'll have to rewrite all the central code. Ad=
d=20
support for parts, write the parts and .... hmmm isn't this getting awful=
ly=20
close to gideon?

Rolands argments about the details are also only half the story. Sure, no=
-one=20
has done it, but then adding that is easier than trying to do the above o=
r=20
trying to replace the kdevelop2 way of dealing with makefiles with one th=
at=20
actually understands makefiles.

I see no problem with having gideon and kdevelop in cvs at the same time.=
 If=20
you are convinced that kdevelop should be head then move it there and cre=
ate=20
a branch for gideon. Forking will only remove people from the development=
 of=20
kdevelop in whatever form it takes.

Personally I find these diverging/converging approaches and the discussio=
ns=20
that arise out of them quite interesting. I would like to see this=20
cross-pollination of ideas continue on the kdevelop mailing list...

Then again, I think gideon with a more polished interface would be a beau=
tiful=20
thing to behold :-))
