The roadmap looks good. But maybe we should start a bit earlier with KDE
support.

I guess the next step is adding some info on http://community.kde.org/KDE_Science and waiting for some feedback on this list?

It is probably relatively close to SciDAVis, which I won't endeavor to compare it with as I have not yet tried SciDAVis. The project has recently reached a new milestone, with version 2.0.0 released as a Qt-only app for now to ease distribution on some platforms (e.g. Windows). The plans are to benefit from KDE goodies on platforms where KDE is installed, by reintroducing some optional dependencies in a forthcoming minor version.

We've discussed some points on the kst mailing list already, but there have been only very few concrete actions taken until now. So, stay tuned and let us know what the plans are here, and whether/how we could get some help for that promotion work (or why not, coding!).
