Mixed Repos?

Hi all,

on 'build.pub.meego.com' project 'home:mdfe:Project:KDE:Experimental'
this issues are already fixed (taking 4.7 release tarballs).
But by our consolidation of the meego kde packaging there are many
other changes and renamings inside this project and I'm unsure to
merge it back to 'Project:KDE:Devel' so short before the desktop-summit.
The contour Team is using this overhauled project for a demo on the
desktop-summit.

Cheers

Maurice
