Misunderstanding. /etc/skel is where to put files that are copied to a new 
users home directory on user creation.

KDE's config is in .kde/share/config and the file .kderc

As the others said, some files may contains paths for the file's owner, you 
might want to copy only the files you really need.

You can also alter the respective global files to change the default settings 
of applications, globale configuration files are in $KDEPREFIX/share/config
(where $KDEPREFIX is the base directory of your KDE installations, usually 
something like /usr or /opt/kde)

Cheers,
Kevin
