I fully agree with you Darrell there is no need to try and replicate kde 4 in doing so you would just be heading in the same direction as them trinity should be finding its own path those who want all the kde4 features are still free to chose kde4 there is no need to turn trinity into another kde4 and doing so would be a mistake in my opinion.
I completely agree.
You people miss the point: there is no other office suite in the world which is so closely integrated with KDE3 as KOffice. For instance, it provides KParts which are used in say, Konqueror, that's why you can open a text document in Konqueror like a web page. You can imbed web pages in your documents as well.
Unfortunately this is true.
Also true is how difficult it would be to maintain koffice with such a small devel group. Its likely the most immediately effective solution is to leave koffice as is, and use an up to date OOo (or the like) as possible until the project has enough devel to tacle the koffice problem.
Logic dictates; work with the problems you can reach first, the rest will fall into reach, if any remain.

KOffice: I never piped in on that debate, but I see no reason to maintain most of KOffice. LibreOffice is more than acceptable as a replacement. I do think the wiki needs to be updated with instructions how to build LibreOffice to ensure native KDE3/Trinity file picker support (using the --enable-kde build option). I think a handful of apps from KOffice should be maintained, such as Kivio, Krita, etc. I don't see a need to maintain the main apps.
When you put it that way... Is it possible to maintain a subset of KOffice? Like Darell said, only a handful of apps? Or is it all or nothing?

There is no such thing in Libre/Open Office. There was a project named Cuckooo, but it does not build now https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=cuckooo&project=home%3AA...
