[Kde-pim] Kleopatra / GpgME++ maintainership

gratulations! I didn't knew some month ago, that kleopatra is that widespread 
in the windows world.

I really like your ideas for improving kleopatra.

I think the splitting is the right step forward - especially making libkleo a 
frameworks sounds good, if the interface is really stable.

One issue poped up in the last month, when trying to compile kontact together 
with gnupg is that the way of compiling is different for gpg4win than our 
build setup (emerge). Kontact is also using libkleo&gpgme++ for crypto 
support, so we need to make sure, that kleopatra and kontact can be compiled 
both on windows and play together. Is there a way to make sure, that kontact 
can use libkleo without compiling it on its own? Also with the movement of a 
mobile kontact version, we may also look into the requirements to compile it 
there. But Gpg4All also want to address mobile devices, so there is no big 
difference in the goals...

Regards,
