YES. (rkward 0.4.9b, OR the relevant svn branch - depending on developments)

Statistically, it is important to get the "no" responses too ;)

Currently, R 2.8.2, but this updates from time to time....

Yes: no control over the department's servers. They use RedHat EL,
currently at 5.3.

[Aside:
I am not sure if RedHat EL 6 will include KDE 4, though SLE 11.0
already has KDE 4.1.3. Do any universities in US (or anywhere else for
that matter) use Canonical for their enterprise Linux solutions?]

Thanks for keeping KDE3 port alive. I can totally understand if you
decide not to in future (if yes/(no+yes) << 1).
