Thanks for answering. The plan for Mailody is for example:
1st April Mailody 0.5 KDE3 based.
1st May Mailody 0.??-alfa1 KDE4 based, Mailody will release at the same times KDE releases alfa, beta's & rc's.

Ok, can we arrange things so it won't end up in the NEW queue for a month? Any convention about naming? So it's clear for the user what's KDE4 based and KDE3 based?
