It's probably a part of kdepim. The much-feared mythical gatekeepers
known as the "ftp-masters" are obviously still denying entry to it.
Does anybody know, why? I thought it was related to certain Qt
troubles that caused FTBFS bugs. But I that this had been sorted out
in the meantime.
BTW: I just saw koffice in incoming. So let's not give up the hope and
keep praying that kdenetwork and kdepim will follow one shiny day...
