You're welcome! Unfortunately we're blocked by upstream's new code generation dependency: libkode has no license and is not redistributable...so I contacted them and hope for a quick resolution. Honestly, I'm not confident that I'll be able to find the time and energy to prepare an upload of kdsoap-ws-discovery-client to NEW. Do we have any new team members who are looking for somewhere to make an initial contribution? If so, please let them know about this opportunity to be part of the solution for a significantly visible feature :) IMHO starting the one month long salvage process when I did makes sense because there's no reason why one person has to do all three tasks (KDSoap, kdsoap-ws-discovery-client, kio-extras). An ideal scenario will be that the maintainer of KDSoap will want to maintain the package on our team (and the new client); The worst scenario would be running out of time for a salvage, or doing a last-minute quick-salvage that borders on a hijack. Thank you for letting me know about kdsoap-ws-discovery-client. Regards, Nicholas
