Since I won't have time for mentoring and I am too little involved in kdevelop 
development, I post it here:

Currently KDevelop doesn't have reliable C++ code 
navigation/autocompletion/refactoring support.

We have our own C/C++ parser with r++ (AFAIK). There are also other options to 
implement this, each with different pros and cons.
As there are:
-cscope/kscope
-ctags
-gcc-xml 

Maybe these should be considered too ?
From a quick view at the kscope screenshots this looks *very* promising. I 
know more or less nothing about ctags. gcc-xml is slow, but will consume 
everything gcc eats.
Having good support for this kind of stuff is very important for the future of 
KDevelop.

Bye
Alex
