Pending removal of konverse/kdestudio
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi all. At some near point in the future I'm going to ask for the removal of
konverse and kdestudio from sid/sarge.
Konverse doesn't work so well and by all appearances seems dead upstream.
Upstream assures us they're in the middle of a complete rewrite but this has
been the case for some time now and it's not clear how long it will take.
Once this rewrite appears I'm perfectly happy to have it back, but until then
it seems better IMHO to remove it completely.
KDEStudio on the other hand *is* dead upstream; upstream has a notice to this
effect on their website. I plan to keep it around as long as KDE2 is in sid,
but once sid moves to KDE3 I'm again going to request its removal rather than
do the port.
So if anyone wants to rescue these packages from their imminent fate, please
mail me; otherwise I'll keep maintaining them until the KDE3 transition and
then file bugs on ftp.d.o for their removal.
Ben.
