From what I understand in this thread you want to improve KBugBuster. That's
awesome because there is no community aroung KBugBuster anymore. I have been
hoping that someone would pick up KBugBuster and make it work with new
Bugzilla versions for years.
Now what I do not understand is that if there are people who want to work on
it, why they need to fork and why they have to use an outdated version as the
start point of the fork? Could you please explain me the reason why the
Trinity project had to fork KBugBuster? Please give me an explanation I
understand and which provides some very good reasoning why it is more
important to work against each other than to work together.
And no, because it's KDE 3 does not count in this case. What exactly in
KBugBuster was so bad that the KDE 3 source base had to be forked?
