Hi, 

I've moved extragear/plasma to KDE/kdeplasmoids. This has the following 
benefits: 

a) it will be branched together with KDE, which means that we can ship bugfixes 
for stable releases without dragging in new dependencies/features/strings/api 
usage

b) we can translate it and ship translations together wtih KDE releases

c) there are regular releases of it automatically with the patch releases 
starting with KDE 4.1.1 and so on, which happen monthly and are in line with 
corresponding plasma changes in kdebase-workspace

d) the build dependency cycles introduced by the move of the nowlistening 
plugin to kdebase-workspace is fixed. 

As a result of that, translations need fixup, and the nowlistening plugin must 
move out of kdebase-workspace. 

Thanks,
Dirk
