I don't want to sound negative, but given the fact that KDE4 is around
the corner and as you said, almost every project using the old-style qt3
dbus bindings, do you think it's still worth the effort to work on this
new qt3 dbus bindings (and porting knm to it)?
Please consider that this will add additional workload for all
distributions, which now have to package two qt3-dbus libraries.
Are the advantages of this "new" qt3-dbus bindings so compelling to
justify this?

Cheers,
Michael
