Hi Kst developers & maintainers,

(please cc: kde-extra-gear at kde.org or best continue there, I am not subscribed 
to kst at kde.org)

we need your feedback and help for doing a proper redirect for the kst page on 
the to-be-shutdown site extragear.kde.org, which for consistency with handling 
of other former pages on extragear.kde.org and ease of setup would point to 
kde.org/applications.

(see old page of kst at extragear.kde.org/apps/kst/, which is listed on 
extragear.kde.org)

The plan is to forward to the respective page on the software catalog on 
kde.org/applications. Seems kst currently has no such entry there, which is a 
shame. So let's create one. Which is were you get into the game :)

Please create a description file for kst using the template at
https://websvn.kde.org/trunk/www/sites/www/applications/apps/template.txt?view=markup
and send it to the kde-www at kde.org mailinglist, so it could be uploaded there 
(unless you can even do it yourself). Please also tell which icon (file) to 
use as official app icon there.
You can find the description files for other apps as reference at 
https://websvn.kde.org/trunk/www/sites/www/applications/apps/

Don't hesitate to ask any questions if you have some.

See below for respective context.
