KatePart

Much of the basic porting work is now complete, to the point that recently katepart can be compiled without Qt3 support classes. There is however much testing to be done, and new features planned include support of BiDi, full accessibility support, but we need to take care that scripting and other stuff will be done for KDE 4, too.

Additionally, the KTextEditor interface has seen much improvement, including consolidation and cleaning of interfaces, and much improved API documentation (thanks especially to Dominik).

Now we need to come up with some design papers how the application should look in the KDE 4 timeframe, which interfaces it should provide for the plugins, which scripting language we chose, which GUI changes we want, ...
