The Olive Launchpad page still mentions olive-kde, but it has mentioned
that since it was created. I don't think there are any current plans to
create an Olive-KDE anymore (it seems unnecessary given we already have

Right, but this was true when it was still a part of bzr-gtk as well.

I'm not aware of any plans for this (yet), though I expect we'll package
