Well, what is lacking most is a developer friendly API for KIOJob.
The communication to the slave, the dlopening, etc are working so
far. But there is a lot to do and I got offerings by not less than
5 persons to help me, but so far almost nothing happened ;(

KIOJob would be done by David and me, it's just a mater of time.
But also all kioslaves besides kiofile need to be ported to the
new "no URLS, just paths" kind of communication. The rest of the
job handling shall be done within KIO(Job). What also needs to be
done is some kind of reusing within kio_daemon. 

Greetings, Stephan
