well, in my old stylesheet I had 90 lines of code for this. It would be really 
good if the site author could add his own custom stylesheets, because I would 
feel really bad to add ~ 90 lines to each stylesheet, just so my status 
information is formatted nicely. 

I could of course hard-code layout stuff and only use colors from the 
stylesheet, but that is not much better than hardcoding everything I think 
(since the colours are "signal colours" and thus may be the same for all 
styles if making it flexible is too much work).

"statistics" might not be a well-choosen word: I meant status information of 
the apps, for display of a status overview of all applications and a more 
detailed status information for a single app. Where Status is something like 
release-date, i18n-freeze date and wether or not the application is in a 
freeze or released.

I do not think that this makes much sense outside of the extra gear since all 
other modules are released as one together with the rest of KDE.
