Hah. No :/. Its at the very core of the issues we've had with distros
packaging Kilo, and we had with the opening of Liberty, and the rework
of the plumbing here I've been leading for the last cycle - and that
we're nearly done with the first pass. At which point we can look at
new features ;).

I'm pretty sure it *will* be EOL'd. OTOH thats 10 weeks of fixes folk
can get. I think you should do it if you've the stomach for it, and if
its going to help someone. I can aid by cutting library releases for
you I think (haven't checked stable releases yet, and I need to update
myself on the tooling changes in the last fortnight...).

Maybe.

Kilo is going to be an issue for another cycle, and then after that
this should be SO MUCH BETTER.
