Sure. extragear working in special mode. All others main parts from KDE 
project use the rules that i have explained before. I digiKam is include in 
the future in koffice (for example (:=))), we will driven by Koffice release 
date. This point is contrainant, but it will be more seriously translated in 
languages supported by KDE project. This point is important if you want 
promote digiKam in others languages.

Sure talking about digiKam integration in koffice is out actually, but we 
cannot ignore this possibility for the future. I think that digiKam cannot 
stay an "extra gear" after 1.0...
