Just for clarification because i think i misunderstand something. The proposed 
Workflow is

  - Mark some repositories as feature frozen
  - Recommend forking them (gitorious, github, gko) for feature development
  - Maintain/release patches against kdelibs
  
I somehow fail to grasp how recommending having n forks of those repositories 
(one for each patch/feature) around makes work for packagers and developers 
easier. Or even migration to frameworks/qt5.

Or is this just the recommendation for this case?
