I'm around, I would argue against the word "former' maintainer.  It's an old 
stable application that does everything I want.  Officially it turned 10 this 
year.  If I found it lacking then I would add that, I'm also on top of 
security fixes like we had recently, though aseigo comited the fix (thank 
you).

kdeexatragear is fine with me, I don't want to keep up with development cycle 
of kde4, since I just don't have the time or hardware to keep up.  

I can't speak for konversation, but I talked to a konversation guy just a few 
weeks ago about this.  He didn't seem that thrilled with keeping up with the 
main kde release cycle either.  So I wouldn't just assume they would want 
into kdenetwork.
