The problem with that approach usually is that master gets frozen during the
GSoC period.
While we could probably make an exception for code that goes into
kdepim/mobile (I don't think we official release that), some changes could
affect even kdepimlibs and we certainly don't want to risk master branch
there.
Suggestions welcome though :)
Cheers,
Kevin
