Hello,

till now I'm not a developers but I'm interested in this project. That's why
I subscribed this mailing list.

I've planed to take a closer look to basked after my examinations in the
next few weeks. To prepare a bit I've already packaged some of the current
versions and tested them.
I guess basked could be a good project to start with as it's not to bloated.

That's what I've thought before, too. But as I'm currently not a developer I
didn't wanted to complain about that ;-)

In my view there are two options we have: One  of them if is to release the
2.0 version as the next one. The other one is to make a 1.9 or something
like that.
I prefer the second option as it implies that maybe some things aren't
working properly yet but it still makes clear that basket is still alive.
(But on the other hand, KDE users normally should know that a Point 0
release isn't always too solid...)

I think 2.0 should have complete feature parity with the last KDE 3 version
and upon that as a sloid ground we can build new features. Maybe we can get
it in KDE 4.5 (although it probably will land in extra gear).


 Before we release, it would be good to resolve the issue of the current bug

Yes, that's very annoying and the cause why I didn't write bug reports.
Maybe it would be the best to cange to an other bug tracker. For example
Launchpad is far les confusing and has some really good features.
As this is a KDE application bugs.lkde.org may be another option.

Depending on what it needs I maybe could take a look after it but soonest in
3 weeks. I'm quite familiar with HTML+CSS.
