Ah yes, there are two. One from Krita:
"Krita is a KDE program for sketching and painting, offering an end-to-end 
solution for creating digital painting files from scratch by masters.

Fields of painting that Krita explicitly supports are concept art, creation of 
comics and textures for rendering. Modelled on existing real-world painting 
materials and workflows, Krita supports creative working by getting out of the 
way and with snappy response."

And one from KTp (which followed the guidelines vor a vision outlined in the 
HIG):

“KDE Telepathy aims to provide Plasma users an awesome open
communication experience that gives them a reason to switch away from
proprietary services.

We provide rich text chat and video calls that aims to fit in seamlessly with 
the Plasma workspace and provide sharing and collaboration features to KDE 
applications. We provide support for closed services such as Facebook, Steam 
etc., but our primary focus will always be on open protocols.“

And yes, we should put those on the wiki. Either I can do that tomorrow, or 
anyone else can do it earlier ;)
Cheers,
Thomas
