With all the things going on in my life at the moment (family, university, work, hobby websites...) I hardly have time to spend on KDE. I follow the planet, keep myself up-to-date a bit and even managed to do some work a few weeks ago, but unfortunately that's also pretty much it.<br>

KidDraw used to be Qt-only anyway, until last year. I do have plans to enable KidDraw for the Plasma desktop though (draw your own wallpaper! :D), but that's long-term.<br>
