That thing has been moved into playground because it isn't ready yet. If you 
would fix it up, we could move it back into kdevplatform. I personally don't 
really need it, but it feels like there is high demand for it. :-)

The main problem of the class-browser is that it currently is somewhat 
inefficient, because it loads too much duchain data. I have some ideas on how 
to make it more efficient, by only loading data for really visible items, and 
only when the class-browser is actually visible.

I haven't used multi_index_container. If you could extract a minimal example 
from it that shows what is not working about it, then I could fix it.

Working on the debugger would be very useful as well. Vladimir Prus has 
started working on it again, so if you'd like to do something in that area, 
you should contact him personally so you can coordinate your efforts.

Except for that, I think Andraes Pakulat has said everything.

Welcome on board!
