In January/ February 2006 you [Aaron] posted a message about using

Possibly due to my lack of experience with KDE I don't actually know how to find your \

fixing that right now and am testing with a stub plugin in

you be interested in working on the LDB backend itself?
I did manage to find some of your work at \
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/base/kconfig/ldb/. Looks interesting, so I'll \
see what I can do. I'll start working on it on the 14-15th of March.
