Dolphin improvements

I have upgraded to gutsy and have some ideas on subj. Please
help me to 
make decision. Could I send patches on this (KDE3/Qt3)
dolphin, or it is 
better to take a look on KDE4/Qt4 dolphin?

Well, you could send patches to the d3lphin project, that's
for sure.
But that code won't live very long, and if you want to do
something
for the 'future' it's way more productive to jump on the
KDE/Qt4
bandwagon. On the other hand, we're close to a release right
now, so
your patches probably won't be accepted until the tree is
open for 4.1
again (unless they count as bugfixes, PLEASE send those
ASAP). Of
course, 4.1 will most likely open short after new year or
even before
that, so it's not that far away.

The version of Dolphin that Gutsy uses is actually D3lphin
[1], not the real 
Dolphin in KDE 4. Dolphin on KDE 3 is practically dead. All
development on 
Dolphin happens in KDE 4. That was it was forked and renamed
D3lphin. Now you 
have to choices. You can either work on D3lphin or Dolphin
in KDE 4. If you 
choose to work on D3lphin, you can send patches both to the
D3lphin 
maintainer and to Kubuntu.


Good luck!
