first of all, thanks for your interest in improving Dolphin! I might
need some time until I can have a closer look at KLook. If I
understand correctly, I have to apply both

kdebase-4.8.1-dolphin-klook.patch
kdebase-4.8.3-dolphin-klook-overlay-icon.patch

from the KLook repository to Dolphin to make it work, right?

Do I understand correctly that you are only asking to integrate these
patches into Dolphin and want to distribute KLook as a separate
application? Moreover, are you willing to maintain all KLook code,
which includes responding to any KLook-related bug reports that we
will get from Dolphin users? There might be quite a few of them (at
first, I was quite shocked by the amount of bug-mails that I get since
I took over Dolphin's maintainership).

Best regards,
Frank
