Yes, openSUSE keeps kde3 alive thanks to the community.
I cringe at that thought. That's a huge codebase including the
underlying QT library, that probably 20+ people were working on full
time when it was still being developed.
I am not sure that unpaid community people can do proper security
support for that beast and I would bet that there are plenty of
zero-days in that code.
