We don't "have decided" to maintain it outside of debian, we just
didn't have an idea how to get it into debian. Kaidan is still in
development: the basic functionality is not implemented completely yet.
Also, we only recently became a KDE project, so we didn't have the
contact to the debian team.
However recently there were some mails about packaging Kaidan in debian
on the Qt/KDE-list, so I hope it can get into debian soon.
OMEMO is on our roadmap and also PEP (a dependency of OMEMO) has been
implemented for QXmpp (still needs to be upstreamed). But don't expect
OMEMO earlier than in one year.
