trying to fix that; thanks for helping =)

personally, i think the change to Abstract is good as it is clearer and makes 
our API and Qt's look like they belong together better (== less conventions 
for people to learn == happy app devs).

as for make it for all of kdelibs and base, that's isn't guaranteeable due to 
maintainer ownership of code. we can make it a guideline (barring further 
objection) and add it to the kdelibs coding document on tech base. we can 
change kdecore, kdeui, kio*, knotify, kparts without much fuss.

kevin would need to weigh in on solid
matthias kretz on phonon
jacob rideout for sonnet
josef spillner for ghns2 (no point in touching knewstuff, imho, as its going 
to be replaced)
george staikos for kwallet
mirko boehm for threadweaver
kfm-devel for khtml/kjs stuff
simon hausmann for kross

of course, if there are no changes in the above, then we don't need to bother 
them ;)

(boy. seems like some documentation of who maintains what in kdelibs is in 
order.)

yep, your mind and heart are in the right places =)
