Thank you.  That said, I am currently working on snapshot versions of
these ports, and hope to commit them shortly after the release, so they
can get some field testing.

Unfortunately, it requires Qt 2.2.0beta0, aka qt-copy, from the KDE
repository.  I don't think qt-copy is suitable for replacement for qt21,
so I'm wondering whether it would be permissible for a repo-copy from
qt21 to qt22.  We can bump the shlib version if necessary.

OTOH, this is bleeding-edge beta software.  I could just post a place
where I keep up-to-date KDE2 ports along with a qt-copy port, and do
daily snap builds + logs etc., and post them there.

I think it would be better than putting it in the tree, primarily to
avoid problems with people who don't know the situation and assume the
ports in /usr/ports are well-tested etc. only to find out that 6-15
hours of compiling got them nothing.  Also, to avoid the qt21 vs.
qt-copy problem above.

I have already discussed this snapshot idea with scrappy, and it seems
like the best way to go about this.
