It was started again virtually from scratch (KDE-4)
That is one of those partial truths: yes, the main user-visible parts of the
desktop workspace were rewritten (Kicker and KDesktop replaced by Plasma), but
a lot of things have been ported: most of kdelibs, several applications such as
Konqueror, KWrite and many more. Other applications such as Dolphin and
Gwenview are new as parts of KDE itself (and do replace KDE 3 apps: Dolphin
replaces Konqueror as the default file manager and Konqueror's file management
support has been rewritten to use the DolphinPart, Gwenview completely replaces
Kuickshow), but have existed as separate KDE 3 applications before.
