kdelibs 3.4.2-2 should be uploaded quite soon - tomorrow or the day after, I 
would think. A point or two need a final decision, then we'll upload.

Thanks for the offer of assistance. While we moved ahead and uploaded arts 
and kdelibs before waiting for Qt3 to build on all architectures, we're 
taking a more conservative approach with the rest of KDE, waiting for 
kdelibs to build on all arches before the rest of KDE and the 3rd party 
applications are uploaded. This is in accordance with the gcc4 transition 
plan and the wishes of the powers-that-be, though some people have already 
proceeded with some uploads of kdelibs-based apps (not that they seem to 
have done any harm).

That said, we're not remorselessly committed to this rule, so if, say, one 
or two arches is holding everything up we'll proceed anyway, but for now, 
we'll get kdelibs 3.4.2-2 uploaded, and try to get a transitioned kdelibs 
built as widely as reasonably possible before uploading further KDE 
modules. kdebase is also waiting on a transitioned dbus, which is waiting 
for hppa to catch up and build Qt3.

Cheers,
Christopher Martin
