Hi,

I am not sure what is to be done with it as I don't use it. It is not 
maintained means that it does not benefit from new KDE technology and that bugs 
are not fixed and that no new features are added. Being in such a state cannot 
last for too long as nobody from our team actually checks its state. As I 
said, I don't know anything about Japanese and I don't even have the proper 
fonts for Kiten. It could be broken and nobody would even notice. So it needs 
someone that at least builds it before the releases and check the bug reports.

You're warmly welcome to step in to look after it!

I hope this answers your question, best regards,
