Hey :D,
I'm trying to help a friend to start coding for kde
and my ideas were basically all that you have put on this
email, I really think one of the things kbluetooth lacks is
a kded module to detect file transfers & friends, and
only show a systray icon when needed :D,
I'm very busy with stuffs like KPackagekit, packagekit aptcc
backend, and policykit ... That's why I'm trying to help
someone to do the most part of the job (like a gsoc)...
Do you use IRC? I've just seem the #kdebluetooth on
freenode, we could discuss some stuff tomorrow
nicks (dantti and mfelipe).


Thanks to work on this btw,
Daniel.

> -A KDED module who check if the user have or not BT devices. If he does, 
> kbluetooth should be launched. Also will be aware of plug/unplug actions.
> -A send-> action in dolphinpart.
> 
> And finally, this is the full feature set I'd like to have (KDE 4.5):
> -Global KCM module to configure everything related to bluetooth.
> -Kioslave full working and added to places by default (to discover devices, 
> browse it etc).
> -kbluetooth application which allow to the user to do everything he wants to 
> do with a couple of clicks.
> -KDED module to control the kbluetooth4 execution.
> 
> About dates, have the minimum needed features for kde 4.4 is not a crazy idea, 
> since kbluetooth itself is quite stable as I said before.

> So, what are your thought about this topic? anything I'm missing?
