Since the emerge transition will have to happen, eventually, I agree, it 
should go first. Since KDE 4.7 is less than two months away, according to the 
schedule, the thought of skipping KDE 4.6, if necessary, does not look too 
catastrophic.

A random thought (which probably just goes to show that I'm have not really 
grasped git, yet): If emerge is moved to git, would it become practical to 
clone from the KDE release branch(es), and to work on required patches 
directly inside that clone?

Congrats! Be sure not to spend too much time on KDE on Windows, then.
