Hi,

as the SVN thread is already pretty long I think we should start a new

I think this sounds good, however I think the long-term developers
should put in their experience with using cvsservice via dcop. I never
really used it so I don't know wether there are substantial problems
that would be solved by duplicating the code in kdevelop.
