Thank you very much for your support, Mauricio.  I was genuinely
unaware of the significance of the May 8 deadline, otherwise I would
certainly not have been busting a gut the last few days to rescue
KJumpingCube before 1 June.

And I am quite happy to maintain KJCube, as well as KGoldrunner,
for as long as I am able (I have been maintaining KGr for several
years already ... :-)).

We are in whole new territory with the release management
of KDE 4.  It is being done quite differently to previous KDEs.  So
I am just as unsure as you about this.  I just know that KJCube
is KDE 4 compliant, has SVG, is reasonably well tested (by me)
and has no new features planned for KDE 4.0, unless someone
wants to compose a new theme ... ;-)
