We can also do it on kde-devel
This is why I am collecting feedback, there seem to be different preferences 
where to post to

Ok, in this case maybe the developer shouldn't move the app at all, but 
someone who can also move the l10n stuff?

It would be some kind of abstraction. The target mailinglist can be changed, 
rewiew request could be queried for, one could subscribe to specific review

However, I am just brainstorming, we are currently doing fine with
