But, why do you think having kde3 stuff hardmasked in main tree in
unmaintained state will be better than having it on a external
overlay? :-/

Also, think about gnome users (like me) that will not need to download
all kde3 ebuilds on every sync :-) Yes, maybe they aren't so much but I
still fail to see why do you think that preserving kde3 hardmasked is
better than using an overlay
