Hi

I can't speak for the others, the following is MY OWN opinion

Perhaps we can exchange informations, ideas, ...., but I think KreateCD will 
and should stay an application of its own, if the KOnCD author would like to 
contribute to KreateCD, I have no problems. (Perhaps we should ask him)

We lived and will live quite well without being in KDE-CVS,  one advantage of 
the current way is, that we don't have to obey the KDE release/feature freeze 
dates. That was one of the reasons, why we didn't put it there (at least for 
me)

Yes choice is always a good thing. I think open source projects should 
exchange as much help / information / code as possible, but I hate the idea 
of only one application for a specific task, because then development will 
finally stop or become slower, because there is no need for improvements, if 
there is no competitor.
