Its a nice idea and a good addition to KDE. And, I couldn't reply to you on
IRC as I wasn't at my desk, you can use
http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/Unstable_Version to get a KDE
trunk build
All the best :)

> Abstract :-
>             PowerTop is a software which measures power consumption by
> different components of a intel/amd processor based machine.On profiling
> power usage deatils suggestions are made to minimize power
> usage.Especially it is used to identify unnecessary wakeups preventing
> CPU to be in idle state which causes more power consumption.Tips are
> generated based on this to optimize power in a better way .This is very
> much helpful for laptops to run on battery for more time.Also it plays
> major role in green computing as more the power consumes, more the
> global warming.
>             The original powertop tool from lesswatts.org comes with
> ncurses interface which is less user friendly.So the main focus of this
> session is to explain the efforts of bringing a better UI for this using
> qt libs which is under development by the project qpowertop.Also the
> scope(with current status) of developing this as kde application and/or
> as a plasmoid will be discussed.The issues traced out and enhancements
> planned for this project will be listed out, so that interested people
> can start contributing to this.
