Ignored how? I did backport it.

I missed the beginning of the thread but KDE 3.5 isn't the recommended
version by kde.org.

It isn't currently even supported, KDE hasn't been accepting any kind of
(even critical/security) bug reports for KDE 3.5 for a very long time.

KDE 3.5 is shown at kde.org as the version recommended for conservative users.
If that is not so you should remove/modify the remark.
Furthermore, Ubuntu has packaged Version 1.3.5 (KDE 3.5.10) of Tellico within
Ubuntu 9.04 (or at least I have downloaded that within Ubuntu (can't remember
which).
I don't like KDE 4x at all, and am trying to maintain KDE 3.5.10 for as long
as I can. KDE 4x will not support the PCMCIA wireless card on my laptop.
Your signals on the KDE website are confusing at least. I don't see why I need
to upgrade to KDE 4x just to get access to Tellico 2.0.
Why is it that I continue to get upgrades to KDE 3.5.10 if you are not
supporting it?
Cheers

This isn't the KDE project's mailing list, it's just for Tellico
development. You should adress your request concerning KDE 3.5 to KDE
mailing lists.

Ubuntu 9.04 has 1.3.5 because 2.0 was not even in beta at the time. The
next one (9.10) won't have it either because 2.0 was released too late for
the Ubuntu freeze, though they seem to want to include it for an update.

I hope they succeed. Using Tellico at present in creating new book or music
(CD, etc) records from Amazon is like trying to drive your automobile with
one arm in a sling.
