As for my status: this is almost done.  Not included is a lot of
non-functional code like dcopperl, xparts, dcopc, and qtsharp,
korundum and qtruby ( for the last two, the situation is better in
HEAD ).  I still need to look at qtobjc, but currently, it's also not
included yet.  

Included are koala, qtjava, dcopjava, dcoppython, kjsembed, and
smoke.

I hope to add qtobjc in the short term, and pykde, pyqt ( hi simon :)
), and korundum and qtruby in the long term ( for KDE 3.3 or 4.0, that
is ).

I don't understand why this should be our policy.  What is the
advantage of not adding stuff to the debian repository directly, if
it is easily possible ?

Hopefully yes.  I have my NM application pending as well, but this
takes an annoyingly long time :(
