In my experience in KDE-Windows I call maintaining patches in the long term a 
fork. KDE-Windows has lots of examples of this. :-)


Can you point me to your Forks / Patches? I don't know how to find them. I 
don't see a branch in emerge or something.
You've probably already solved some other things I'm facing currently. :-)


I think that we should try to push the KDE Community in a way that we don't 
need to fork / patch anymore for our needs. In my understanding the Frameworks 
effort was specifically done to make it easier just to grab some parts of KDE 
Libraries one might find useful without having to include the monolithic 
"kdelibs" overhead / dependencies. And if we beneficiaries of such an effort now 
end up forking things, the whole effort could be called a failure :-/

So far we had not problems with that. We always have problems with "Virus 
scanners" but this is (i think) mostly because we contain lots of crypto 
algorithms that are also used by CryptoLocker Viruses.
