I think your worry on that point come from what you see in "established 
practices". To me "use kdelibs" is not practice it's a technical choice. :-)

The way we do our development, grouping things in extragear, going through 
kdereview, etc. those are established practices.

I don't think we maintain such a list, I'm not even sure it'd be desirable. 
It's scattered in community.kde.org as we document our way of working in a 
given area... and that's probably best this way.

Does it answer some of your concerns?

It's the last open issue from our rounds of discussions AFAICT. I'd like us to 
move forward on it.

Regards.
