Well, yes.
a) static: why? You need a DCOPObject instance to emit the signal. Well, not 
strictly an instance, a name would do, but I don't see the need to make it 
static as
b) k_dcop_signals should be #defined protected and not public IMHO. Only the 
DCOPObject itself should emit the signal.
But that's just details, the basic idea to generate stubs for DCOP signals is 
just great. And gets kdocifyablity for free - now that they are actually 
methods :)
