I'm sorry that this is over a month late, but I haven't had any time for some

We aim at allowing parallel installation of both version.

This is still true, of course!

One thing to consider is  that not all KDE modules are likely to be able to 
include their KDE4 versions with KDE4, notably (IIRC) kdevelop and kwebdev.

Given the rather long timeframe they might be able to do a separated release 
in time for Lenny, though.

Might be worth considering to at least have kdelibs and kdebase available in 
KDE3 version as well.

Cheers,
Kevin
