While I can understand that KDE3 is not developed further, I'm unhappy
to read that the support for the Qt3/KDE3 ports is dropped; I don't
expect bugs fixed in Qt3/KDE3 anymore, but at least the ports should be
able to compile and maybe adopted to changes in ports they depend on.

KDE4 is in no way an alternative for smaller netbooks (like EeePC),
maybe not even for real workstations.

Thanks for your work in any case
