It should be noted however, that the main development *IS* gideon/HEAD, not 
KDevelop 2 any more. If someone wants to write patches to that or additions 
to a "dead" branch, I can't keep anyone off to do that. So if Roland is 
maintaining that inside the CVS, I'm fine with that and another KDevelop 
bugfix/feature release can be officially  done to support the companies and 
developers who need a fully operational system right away. For new developers 
though who want to work on kdevelop, I suggest to work on gideon. I myself 
will stick to gideon now as well as the 2.0 release was the deadline and will 
be the deadline for the old branch as far as the "big thing" (tm) goes.
So there's actually not a splitting, Roland just wants to spend some time 
hacking up stuff that he thinks didn't get ready for 2.0 and put that in 
place. Whatever everyone pleases.
