There'd be a different kind of quality control, of course. For
example, make the new build script have a target 'kde' that depend on
the correct apps and libs. We can also keep the current semantic
division of the apps ( kdenetwork vs kdegraphics etc ), it should just
not be reflected in the CVS modules structure.
Anyway, I'm giving up on this subject, I think..
Thanks everyone, for discussing, and sorry for the long thread.
cheers
