I'd suggest to start with a KDEPIM project only, and only create more as 
required. Release/Milestone projects can be useful for milestone planning, but 
I'd rather try to do that for the moment using the Kanboard.

Agreed.

It can be IMO used for any sort of developer tasks. It should remain a 
developer tool IMO, and as such it should only contain stuff that somebody 
actually wants to work on (even if in the distant future). So it can be used 
to i.e. collect porting tasks, do roadmap planning, etc.
