I didn't want to push anybody to do the packaging, but was just wandering about the policy to only include official kde4 modules. Time is a very good reason not to include much more, especially as there is a lot do in packaging kde-stuff for you folks, I assume.

Lke 90% of the time is building and testing, and i am afraid I am the only one
who can do that. Unless somebody else *trustable* in the team wants to build
the final releases, but it is not currently the case.

will be "squeeze" and it won't have too much to do with current testing.
