For one, since when does the name of a library in CVS matter? I never saw 
anyone complain about what "libltdl" means. The user doesn't have to know or 
care what the library is called - the person using the library can put any 
text on the window they like - its just a KDialog - "Get hot new stuff" is a 
generic default, I don't see anything wrong with that.

For two, if you don't like the naming convention of the library, shouldn't you 
have raised these objections when the module was being put into kdelibs, like 
say, over 1 year ago? It's a bit late to totally re-name the library seeing 
how there are tons of apps that use it both in and out of KDE CVS.
