Styles and window decos are two different things, one is Qt stuff one KDE.

For window decorations subscribe to https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kwin
Their API changed with KDE 3.2 so there are lot of decorations to port out
there on http://kde-look.org and even in KDE (kdeartwork/kwin-styles/riscos).
kdebase/kwin/clients/PORTING is one document which should help and also the
HOWTO mentioned here: http://lists.kde.org/?l=kwin&m=106598958209893&w=2

The Qt style API changed last time with KDE 3.0 and will again with Qt 4.0.
Two styles which got lost until now during transition are described in #39221
and #39222 (not sure how much need there is still for the second :-).
http://doc.trolltech.com/3.3/qstyle.html#details would be a start point here.

Hope that helps,
