We can host repositories for you, if Mageia is unwilling to accept them - you could make a kde3 rpm that adds the necessary sources to use. Or, Mageia could make an official kde3 repository that is disabled by default but can be enabled on installer/rpmdrake. I'm not the expert at this, though :-/ that's mageia dev decisions.
