given that it's in extragear, this is very much up to the individual 
developers. the problem is, as you note, that if you want to be packaged up 
with the rest of kde during releases, how do we manage that?

well, post-4.0 we will be providing a "this is what to release" tag for 
extragear developers to use ... so developers can simply tag what is the last 
stable release and continue to develop merily on their own schedule (whatever 
that may be) in trunk/

still, requires a wee bit of discipline, but not so bad as to tie KEG into the 
KDE release cycle. apps are welcome to follow that release cycle if they 
wish, though, of course =)
