The best place to ask KDE3 questions is -desktop mailing list. The |
| 24 |
people that are working on KDE3 are regulars there. I only mention |
| 25 |
because you may not know since it not written anywhere that I am aware of. |

I'd ask there and see what they say. If they have plans, I'm sure they |
| 28 |
can explain the options better. It may take a day or so to get a reply |
| 29 |
depending on who is there and when. |
