OpenSync and its KDE frontend KitchenSync are supposed to replace all other 
syncing tools in the long term.

At the moment KitchenSync is tied to the release cycle of OpenSync, so we need 
to be able to do stable releases of KitchenSync together with OpenSync 
releases. That means, there needs to be a KDE 3 version until the KDE 4 
platform is usable for stable releases.

As we currently don't have the resources to maintain two versions of 
KitchenSync at the same time this means that we will port KitchenSync to KDE 
4 once there is a stable KDE 4 release. So this could mean that we will 
include KitchenSync in KDE 4.1. The connection to OpenSync could also mean 
that we have to keep to release KitchenSync separately, at least until there 
is a 1.0 release of OpenSync which means that there will be a stable API.
