Yes, some of the splits I see in workspace land leave me wondering what were the rationale for them. But I can smell problems down the line. To clarify, I'm not necessarily a huge fan of the one repository per framework as we did *but* there was a justification for it. We're trying to target an extra audience which would benefit from it. So that's a necessary evil for KDE Frameworks if you want. I don't see that for the workspace. > In this case, I think we should just have core things in kio, and everything > else in kioslaves (or call it kio-extra-slaves, or whatever).
