KNewStuff2 does now mostly work, although it looks everything but pretty. I 
could rush it in later today, but I wonder if this is sensible, since no 
applications except for KHangMan have been evaluated for porting yet.

Some input from the release team would be nice in order to know how far the 
subsystem freeze deadline could be stretched in such a case. I'd welcome an 
extra week for the tests especially with existing data providers.

There's also someone (ruphy) working on something called a "Plasmagik API" 
which would assume a certain packaging and installation format based on the 
KNS2 engine. If this turns out to be useful, it might well be the primary API 
for apps in the future. However, this is even more off the schedule right 
now, and still in development. This API is mostly what you can find in the 
KNS2 namespace on techbase, while KNS2 has a nice doc/ directory.
