For the record:

Andras and I decided to keep his new code in kdgantt2 and move it into komo, where it
will be merged back into trunk with the rest of komo once trunk is re-opened for 4.6. 

Then kdgantt and kdgantt1 can be removed from trunk.
We can also think about a better name than than "kdgantt2".

If the license is changed to LGPL2+ or some-such, we could think about
putting it in kdepimlibs for 4.6.
