fish:// first appeared around the KDE 2.2 timeframe as an independant project. 
for KDE 3.0 several of us recruited the author to put it in KDE CVS proper 
and he did so.. the rest is, as they say, history =)

glad i could be of use =)

and now for the lightening round: 

in KDE 3.4 we have a cool little app called knetattach, which is a wizard that 
steps you through creating connections to remote file systems using SSH 
(fish://), WebDAV, FTP or Samba. it will take you through the process step by 
step and even create an icon for later re-use.

the easiest way to access knetattach is to enter remote:/ in the location bar 
in konqueror and click on Add a Network Folder. or you can add the Network 
Folders button to your panel by right clicking on it and selecting Add To 
Panel -> Special Button -> Network Folders .. spiffy. =)
