36 -The KDE project consists of two teams that manage the KDE ebuilds
37 -within Gentoo, which include all KDE applications. However, some KDE
38 -applications might belong to specific herds due to the fact that the
39 -KDE project cannot maintain all of them properly, as there are too many
40 -applications and many of them are not used by the KDE maintainers.
41 -Nevertheless, the project does support the teams that do manage these
42 -applications, and will ensure that they use the KDE eclasses appropriately.

52 The goal of the Gentoo KDE team is to provide working support for all packages
53 supported by the KDE Project. We also support as many underlying packages as
54 necessary in order to have a properly working KDE environment.
55 +However, some KDE applications might belong to other teams due to the fact
56 +that the KDE project cannot maintain all of them properly, as there are too

129 -The KDE 3 testing, and in future also maintainance, overlay is called

131 -aggressive changes to the KDE 3 build system and is maintained by tampakrap
132 -these days. Due to the planned removal of KDE 3 from the Portage tree, it will
133 -soon become a user overlay in which KDE 3 will be left to be maintained by users

139 +KDE team members have no responsibility about its status. If you are interested
140 +in co-maintaining it, you can send an email to <mail link="scarabeus" /> asking for
