[Kde-extra-gear] Rethinking position on trunk x branches

I personally probably won't start on KDE4 porting for a while. So for me the 
kde3 branch will be the HEAD of development, thus for me trunk would make 
more sense, especially since the translators work mostly there.

What about you other guys? When are you planning to port to KDE4?

Cheers,
Sebastian
