 Most likely it will be available shortly after it is officially
 released.
 According to what is available on the KDE site, that might not be for
 quite a while yet.


 I would like to see a kde4-devel port... IIRC the first KDE4 developer

Won't happen. Trying to pry alpha and beta releases into ports 
packages is a huge effort that only takes away our already marginal
developer resources from actual porting work on the KDE4 codebase.

 A Qt 4 port could be good as well.
   
Agreed. The QT port has been stuck for a while on the 'last mile' - that
is making the necessary changes to bsd.kde.mk and bsd.port.mk. There are
no other reasons for this other than myself being short on free time and
bad luck (our packagebuilding machines becoming unavailable when I do
get some time). I've not given up on it though.

Cheers,

You would probably do better asking the KDE people regarding a release
date.

A Qt 4 port could be good as well. Qt 4 is very stable, and (finally) 
peacefully co-exists with earlier versions.
