[kde-doc-english] Changes to Stable docs, & future KDE 3.x series releases

[Philip Rodrigues]

Hi Richard,
It has been a bit confusing recently; hopefully this clears it up:

Currently we aren't writing any docs for KDE 4, since the applications mostly 
are too much in a state of flux. We've been using trunk/ as a kind 
of "holding ground" for any changes we make, since these changes can of 
course be useful for later KDE 4 docs.

We also have semi-regular string unfreezes on the 3.5 branch, during which we 
backport any changes of content (ie, not just spelling/grammar/markup 
changes) from trunk/. We currently have a string unfreeze targetting 3.5.7, 
so any new content committed to trunk can be backported to the branch, and 
will appear in 3.5.7. (Incidentally, the 3.5 series is the last of the KDE 3 
releases - there might be a 3.5.8, but there won't be a 3.6)

The tentative release schedule for KDE 4.0 [1] suggests we will soon need to 
start working on docs for KDE 4, so this will change at some point. 

Regards,
Philip
