Are you willing to step up as the maintainer of the KDE3 ports? Or

they are lots of work to keep up in shape and if no one wants to
maintain them they succumb to what is called "bitrot" very quickly
when something changes in dependent ports or in the base system.
When/if that happens, we can renew the conversation. For the time being
there are no build errors.
I agree with this. Simple bitrot can be patched pretty quickly even w/o
a maintainer and if nobody is willing to do that then sure, kill it.
FYI I already maintain a number of ports and I intend to add more Ada
ports in the future, so I can't pick up KDE3 myself.
