yes it is one patch because I don't see why I should split this patch into
more.
I did them all in one patch because they depend on each other.

I can't  due to the buildsystem. Every move that I make creates a lot of
undef refs.

What's the difference from what I am doing?
I copy&paste the moves and I give you the diff which has the changes.

ok, I am waiting :)

I agree, I think that its better if you make the cherry pick.

my work here at the frameworks started at the first KF day, you told me to
do it like this
and I did.

I don't consider me as the best person for this work.  Why?
Because I don't trust my decisions, our frameworks is a heavy job and I
can't take such calls.
Also in order to this I have to study all that code, which requires a lot
of time and I don't volunteer for
that. I prefer someone who has the appropriate experience to tell me what
to do.

Regards,
Giorgos
