Thanks a lot. It was originally meant to be just a little hint for those who 
start with KDE development but I got some feedback so it should become 
finished (and fixed) ASAP, hopefully with the help of others.
However, the work on it today was mostly eye-candy.

The build system itself (autotools) has not much to do with KDE, but the used 
macros do.
I'm also not an expert in this area but since I have to do with it a lot due 
to other projects it seems logical that I contribute my growing knowledge 
back to the project which contributes a lot to my/our ideas and apps. That's 
philosophy :-)
