I'm surprised how easy it was too.  Apart from konq it only took me about 2hrs 
for the rest of kdebase (getting konq right was about a day).  Most of the 
porting is just deleting calls, when you know that they're no longer 
required :)

Yes, I thought about a compat layer for that, but decided it would just be 
ugly.  It's not too bad once you figure out ownership for the action group.

I think it's mid next-week?

I can commit my kdebase to a branch if that helps...

Cheers,
