By the way, given that most of the development should happen into projects/, 
how are we going to make sure that developers can easily apply cross-module 
changes to the repo in projects?
Take an example:
Someone does a big api change, and does all the porting necessary to all KDE/. 
He does a cross-module commit, with both the api change, and all the 
applications ported to the new stuff.
The maintainer, of, for example, kig, has a projects/kig.git repo, where he 
does most of the work. As the crossmodule commit has been done on the 
kdeedu.git, how can he backport the change to kig easily and apply it to the 
code in projects/, so he can continue to work happily?

Bye,
