KDE 3.4 lives on in Trinity.  I've been on it for over 15 years,
probably. It seems well supported with an active ng presence on Gmane,
as well as open email lists for both users and developers.

I think I would have kept on with Trinity instead of KDE 4, if my distro
had it in the repositories.  I initially didn't like KDE 4, but kind of
swallowed it and learned to like it, and then later, found it was quite
right for me.  I didn't switch to KDE 4 until some time after its
release, so some of the bugs had been ironed out.
