One other thing that came to my mind is development of examples for Frameworks 
5, see [1] and [2].

Only a couple of the frameworks seem to have an examples subdirectory.
I think it would be both a valuable and self-contain contribution to make sure 
that as many frameworks as possible have good example programs.

Maybe even having tutorials on techbase.kde.org explaining the steps that were 
necessary to create the examples.

CCing the frameworks development list.

Cheers,
Kevin
