Moved kpilot from kdepim to applications, as the core Trinity libraries should not contain hardware-dependent software

+KPILOT 4.2.1 by Dan Pilone
+===========================
+	Additional work by Robert Ambrose, 
+	Preston Brown, Adriaan de Groot, 
+	Heiko Purnhagen, Jorg Habenicht,
+	and probably many more.
+
+	KPilot is software for syncing the 3Com Palm Pilot, Palm III, IIIe,
+IIIc, IIIx, V, Vx, M100, Handspring Visor and IBM Workpad with a machine 
+running some flavor of unix. The actual PC->PP communcations was originally 
+based on pilot-link.0.8.7, though you should use pilot-link.0.9.3 now. 
+By default KPilot attempts to connnect using /dev/pilot which should be 
+a link to the actual serial port, however this is configurable in the 
+settings dialog. 
+
+	This is the second release of KPilot 4.x, the first version of
+KPilot that works with and under KDE2. It is released as part of KDE 2.2.
+
+INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
+=========================
+
+	The file ../README contains minimal information on how to compile
+and install KPilot. Since KPilot is part of the kdepim package, you
+should also have the INSTALL file for kdepim, probably in ../../INSTALL.
+
+	This README file only contains the release notes for KPilot 4.2.1.
+
+UPGRADING FROM OLDER KPILOTS
+============================
+
+The first time you run KPilot 4.2.1, it will automatically display
+the setup screen and you can check all the configuration settings.
+If you used KPilot 3.x, you should also immediately configure all your
+conduits (again) because many things have changed there.
+
+CURRENT FEATURES
+================
+	* Conduit for abbrowser (experimental).
+	* Conduit for expenses (experimental).
+	* Improved international-character support.
+	o Conduit for KNotes (still experimental).
+	o Now a KDE2 application.
+	o Plug in conduit support, currently including
+		KOrganizer, todolist, null and PopMail
+	o Hot-Sync daemon.  - Now hot-sync with just the push of the
+	  Hot-Sync button on your cradle.  No need to launch KPilot.
+	o Add/Delete/Edit memos.
+	o Add/Delete/Edit addresses.
+	o Full Category support for both memos and addresses.
+	o KPilot now respects secret data.
+	o More configuration options including port speed and 
+	  docking control.
+	o Now supports signature files for email.
+	o Drag and drop to docked icon for file install.
+	o International Support
+	o Full Backup/Restore capabilities of Palm Pilot
+	o File (prc,pdb) installation
+	o Email syncing capabilities (via POP3 & sendmail)
+	o SmartSync backing up modified data even
+		for databases KPilot doesn't recognize
+	o Import/Export to/from virtually any text format for
+		Addresses.
+	o Import/Export to/from text files for memos
+	o Sort and display addresses in different ways
+	o A null conduit (programming example)
+	o Syncing with UNIX mailboxes
+	o Database dispositions (sync, backup only, or ignore)
+
+(* = new in this release)
+

+KNOWN BUGS

+	All the known bugs in KPilot can be found in the KDE bugs database

+
+Please check with that database before reporting bugs.
+
+
+
+
+STANDARD DISCLAIMER, WARNINGS, ETC..
+====================================
+	THIS SOFTWARE HAS BUGS.  Use at your own risk.  It has not even
+been tested anywhere but on my machine and only with my Palm Pilot.  I
+have been using it against XCopilot for development then verifying it
+works with a real pilot with my Palm Pilot Professional running OS v2.0.4.  
+It works with Adriaan's Palm V running PalmOS 3.5 as well.
+I make no claims that it will work, or even try to work.  I take no
+responsibility for any data loss, damage, etc. done by this software.  
+ie:  Should your pilot burst into flames while trying to sync a new game..
+sorry.
+	That being said, I _really_ want comments regarding the software
+as well as suggestions.  Bug fixes are even snazzier and code
+contributions are welcome.  :)
