hi all ...

when looking at migrating kdebase to git (thanks to Ian Monroe for his effo=
rts=20
there and for the support of KO Gmbh that helped make that happen), it was=
=20
decided to split it up into chunks which are:

* kdebase runtime (git -> kderuntime)
* kdebase workspace (git -> kdeworkspace)
* kdebase apps, minus konsole (git -> kdebase-apps)
* konsole

runtime / workspace / apps as divisions already reflects changes made start=
ing=20
with 4.0. even now in svn, code in one of those is not allowed to have a=20
compile time dependency on code in the other two. this is why, for instance=
,=20
folderview is in kdebase/apps/: it relies on libkonq which is also in there.

kdebase-apps is being kept together because there is a lot of code sharing=
=20
between the projects there, particularly in the form of file management cod=
e=20
in libkonq. it was determined by the maintainers of each that there was=20
nothing but a loss of efficiency and increased pain to be gained from=20
splitting them up.

konsole, however, is a significant application in its own right that doesn'=
t=20
actually share code with the rest of the apps in there (besides Qt, kdelibs=
=20
and runtime, of course ;). so it is getting its own repo.

if there are any questions / concerns / thoughts on this, please provide yo=
ur=20
feedback now as we'd like to make the move as soon as possible once 4.6.0 i=
s=20
released.=20

also, please keep all relevant discussion on kde-core-devel rather than CC'=
ing=20
all the lists; i just CC'd the lists so everyone there who may not be on k-=
c-d=20
as well receives the information :)
