Sorry, not discussions; recent commit messages indicate that it's being obsoleted and slated for removal starting from the leaves. See for example r125868, r125871.

I had mentioned the idea of making KDE3 obsolete quite some time ago (months) on the list, but never got to do it. I indeed started (independently from the imake discussion, just a coincidence) some days ago with the dependents ports. I going slightly slowly on this part as I am trying to find replacements for the few remaining kde3-based apps whenever possible. The idea would be to then remove the kde3 suite after all dependents have been taken care of.

The biggest remaining issue is koffice. Ideally, it could be replaced by calligra (requested in ticket #https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37579), but it seems plagued with several problems at runtime making it only very partly usable on OS X.

Cheers,

Nicolas
