Nice!   Some very little updates:

 o Tom Albers found developers for all the kipi-plugins modules
   the maintained.  currently not active envolved in kipi-plugins
   (on the other hand toma is upstream of mailody and rsibreak ;)

 o kipi-plugins are also supported by showimg and ksquirrel


Random thought when I read the last slide that talks about
debian/kubuntu and alioth svn.  AFAIK alioth supports bzr
now too  and bzr is tighly integrated into launchpad.
So bzr would offer easier coordination due it's decentralized
nature.  _Maybe_ it would help (in the future) to move to alioth
bzr repo.

All I know is that I hate stupid svn merge capabilities and everyone
tried says bzr merge is nice (I've not tried yet.  I avoid merging
like hell due to cvs and svn experience ;)

I myself use svk to mirror svn kde-extrans repo to get decentralized
repo feature, bzr has it builtin.
