Hi,
Trojitá has become a part of the KDE project. Details are available in my blog 
[1].

Some quick things:

- There's no dependency on KDE; Trojita does *not* require any KDE library, Qt 
alone is enough. In future, the dependencies on KDE will be and remain optional.

- Five new people got involved due to the migration already, one of them via 
the Google Code-in project for high-school students.

- There's been a 0.3.90 prerelease -- a sure indicaiton that a stable release 
with plenty of new features is getting very, very close. You might want to 
upgrade now, there's been a *ton* of fixes and new features alike. A list of 
them is at [2], a nice announcement will be put together when a proper 0.6 
release gets made.

- Trojita now ships under the GPLv2 and GPLv3 dual license. In case I get run 
over by bus, the KDE e.V. (the legal organizaiton behind KDE) has the right to 
relicense the code under the future GPL versions. Not that I will care :).

- If you're following git, the "main public repo" is now at 
git://anongit.kde.org/trojita.git. The Gitorious, Github and repo.or.cz mirrors will keep 
receiving updates as long as they provide this service, but the KDE's repository is the 
official place.

I'm really happy that the KDE community has accepted Trojitá under its 
umbrella. I hope that this move will attract more developers and users and in 
turn make Trojita better.

Cheers,
Jan
