So, let's explain one of the ideas
The idea is not us pick the package, the idea is release a set of last stable 
packages, so during the new KDE release, we will launch a "module" containing 
all latest released tarbals made by developers. So, as example, if you 
releases k3b 2.0 in september and KDE will be released in October, for 
convenience, we will have a package extragear-multimedia containing the 2.0 
release independently ( or a link for your official package ), doesn't matter 
if you are already working on  2.1 or later. The package will be just for 
easy target of packagers. 
Of course, the discussion is here to improve or change the system, the only 
sure thing about this is that i will release a extragear package per module, 
how will be done is one of this mail targets to solve :-)
