KDE3 de facto EOL, Project Trinity?

Hello,

I'm as well a happy user of KDE3 in all my laptops and even my small
EeePC 900 netbook. I don't want to miss this, because I think KDE4 is
hunting in wrong directions from the point of view of the end user.

While this is a personal opinion, it turned out that KDE4 just did not
work. I compiled in July based on SVN a 9-CURRENT and the ports KDE4 and
Xorg (...) and the result was that the desktop screen gets mangeled in
some situations; if someone needs the details, look for the thread

  Subject: [kde-freebsd]  mixups in KDE4 display of certain windows

in kde-freebsd at freebsd.org;

So, I really don't know what to do if ports/x11/kde does not compile
anymore in 9- or 10-CURRENT.

It is sad
