That's not for me to decide, and it was decided 9 months ago ( from
the first e-mail that I received from this list ) that the move - to -
git was a thing desired.

It's also time to lose the fear that 'kde application' means that only
works on kde. I'm a happy digikam user on windows :)

if the developers agree to move Umbrello to be a non-kde-sdk
application, then I would actually to move my students to another
project because they are in a unpaid internship contract to KDE e.V
