It's ok for me, but I think I'll not start really on KDE4 porting for a 
while yet. In this case, I can make my regular snapshots fron the head, 
until things get stable again, or until I begin Qt4 porting work again on 
head. But since your project schedule is so tight, we'll have KDE3.5 
snapshots too, for the upcoming dot releases, if they are needed.
