Since I brought up this on  krusader-devel in january I got no replay  
from the original author of the iso slave. So, I'd say it's ok from  
our side to move it "upstream".

That's the interesting point. I was the last one touching this code,  
but only to make it compile on Mac OS X. Since the code has been  
around for years and I think some distros bundle it with their KDE by  
default I don't expect many problems with it. However, I don't want to  
become official maintainer of this code.

So, if you want to move it, feel free, but you have to take over the  
maintainership.

bye,
Jonas
