I'm sorry to say so, but I'm not up for that. I'm currently only using
KDevelop when hacking on its source code, which means less than 5 hours a
week and I don't think I should be judging on a codebase that I don't use
myself.

I'm still playing a bit with the core/ui split as I'm interested in that,
but beyond that I don't have any plans to work on any kdevelop code in the
short to mid term. (I'd love to implement a couple of features, but as I
don't really use kdevelop myself I know I wouldn't ever be maintaining them
properly)
