Random shuffling of tarball extensions and locations (KDevelop)

KDevelop 4.7.4 was released recently [1]. Relative to KDevelop 4.7.3 [2], it
switched:
- bz2 for xz
- <version>/src for <version>/
In turn, KDevelop 4.7.3 changed relative to 4.7.2 [3]:
- xz for bz2
This seems like a lot of excessive churn to me, and suggests that some things
are not automated (or checklisted) that ought to be. It's one of those little
annoyances that slows down packaging. Who would be a good contact point for
straightening out the release process of this application (or more generally,
for releases of KDE applications) ?
