Future of KDE Bindings for KDE3

[Scott Kitterman]

As Emilio has discovered, this will need to be ported to support Amarok 2.

http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Development/Scripting_HowTo_2.0

In any case it appears once we have Amarok 2 we can safely drop the suggests 
since the current script won't work with Amarok 2.

Thanks,

Scott K
