I can try that... "Plasma5" would be ok for everybody as category?

one thing is that it would probably need someone volunteering as maintainer.
anyways, current informations:
* in repo bodega-server the 3 readmes explain the architecture well
* in repo bodega-client/lib there is a client library (Qt4) that should be in 
theory not too hard to attach to knewstuff
* in bodega-webapp-manager repo, there is a manual (more user oriented, but 
maybe useful) "Bodega Participants Manual.pdf"
