just for the record: kicker was already more or less ported to Qt4 at
the time
it got replaced by Plasma. It was in the source code till October 2007 [1],
just a few months prior to the 4.0 release. So it would be a good idea
starting from this point.
It is indeed not so hard to get this to compile against KDE 4.11 again.
I just pushed the mentioned Kicker port to GitHub with some fixes to get
it to compile and run against KDE 4.11.
Maybe I'll play a bit more with it when I have time. It would be nice to
see how kicker & kdesktop on KDE 4 would work. I don't think it could
replace Trinity in every single situation, but I think could be an
interesting alternative.
If anyone would like to look more at this, be sure to get in touch.
