This is about kdelibs only.

A great part of the most active kdelibs developers was in Trysil, and they are 
known to support a common policy. Others who where not there have stated 
their support for it (e.g. myself, although my contributions to kdelibs are 
really small).

Since the rule "use the indentation preferred by the author" doesn't work for 
90% of kdelibs code, I am not sure which alternative you suggest. Would it be 
OK for you if we simply exclude those parts of kdelibs from the policy that 
you are maintaining?
