Those are the big ones from lidkdegames, but there's also a lot of
stuff from kdelibs like KXmlGuiWindow or KMainWindow instead of
QMainWindow, KCmdLineArgs, KApplication instead of QApplication, etc.
Also, KDE i18n should be used for translations.

Really, your first step is to get it moved into KDE's infrastructure,
then people can start to poke around in the sources. The automated
Krazy checks will also point out deviations from KDE's "standards".
