Sounds good.  Learning more about KDE is nice in my view. :-)  I for one 
wouldn't pass up such a chance to learn about a system like KIO, so I'm 
not surprised that you don't.

It'd probably be good if you put the file parsing and converting code into 
a common library to be used by both your ioslave and the installer app.
