Whatever you want :) If you think all of the plugins in there will be ready
by may 1st we can do a combined release. Its your decision basically, also
wether you then want a kdevelop-plugins-1.0 or a separate package for each
plugin.

I'm not sure at the moment about possible translation issues though, do you
have Messages.sh scripts to extract the translatable texts? Do you even
have translateable texts in those plugins?
