I agree on this.

Actually that is why I still think it would be better if we would give 
KDevelop a new name, maybe even just for the first releases of the 4.X series. 
That would save us from all the uninformed ranting, and also might give us new 
users who have tried "KDevelop3" before and didn't like it. An interesting 
option might even be to rename "KDevPlatform" to "KDevelop", and give the C++-
IDE called KDevelop a new name.

But I won't start new discussions on that as we have more important stuff on 
the agenda.

About moving KDevelop to extragear: You're right on the pace of development. 
However, the location doesn't really matter, does it? It's just another svn 
location to check out the source, and until someone complains, we don't need 
to worry about this too much.
