I want people to be able to do peer to peer development using the capabilities 
of git. I want there to be a one-to-one correspondence between a project which 
people want to maintain outside of the kde git repo, and the kde git repo 
version. The QtRuby project in github needs to be a clone of the kde git repo 
project.

 I'm not exactly sure what this kdebindings-support module would be. If it is 
an arbitrary jumble of qt-only things and tool things, then it won't fly in the 
git distributed peer-to-peer repo world that we want have.
