Again, this isn't the full story on what happened. At the time there was a lot 
of upset people and bad words being thrown about and I think this was a major 
cause for the so-called "failed" re-write.

I don't _totally_ buy into the "re-writes always fail theory" that keeps 
getting aired here. Witness konqueror for a start. And yes I know you can 
give counter examples as well, Lets not get into that :-))

The point here is that I believe there is _no_ need to fork kdevelop. It's 
useful for both sets of people to work on the branches and discuss various 
approaches to ide development.

Afterall how could you import gideon parts into kdevelop, if gideon didn't 
exist.

We need peace and we need developers. Do want you must to further kdevelop. 
I'll support whatever is decided with the occassional patches and 
encouragement, as I can afford. With some luck I might not have a job soon 
and can devote more time to coding.

I've said enough now on this. :-)

That's exactly the point. The total rewrite failed, adding and partially
replacing keeps the usuability of KDevelop as the MDI-feature addon in
KDevelop-2.0 showed.
