kdenonbeta Official Clean Up: Where will your code go?
======================================================

   kdenonbeta [http://webcvs.kde.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/kdenonbeta/] is
KDE's source repository for code that is not ready yet to be included in
KDE's beta releases. It can be considered a nursing ground for new
software. Unfortunately not all software reaches adolescence.  Below you
find a list of programs that have been removed from kdenonbeta due to
lack of development. If you are the author of a program in kdenonbeta
that is still there after this cleanup, now is a good time to think
about the future of your code.

     You have a few options:

    * Your code is maintained and developed by you, relatively stable
      and you wish to maintain it further as part of a major KDE module.
       --> Todo: Write a proposal to kde-core-devel outlining why your
code
      should become part of this KDE module.
    * Your code is maintained and developed by you, relatively stable
      and you wish to maintain it further and make your own releases.
       --> Todo: Contact Klas Kalass  to discuss moving
      your code to kdeextragear [http://extragear.kde.org].
    * Your code is no longer maintained and/or developed by you or
      anyone  else.
       --> Todo: Contact sysadmin (AT) kde.org and ask for the removal
of the
      code from kdenonbeta and/or do a "cvs remove -f" yourself.
