KServiceLocator in krdc is supposed to be re-usable and has been written with 
the intention that it may be included in kdelibs one day. 
The two major reasons why I did not go for that yet are a) ATM only krdc uses 
it and b) there will be a major re-design in the next months, so that the API 
is able to handle newer SLP extensions and prepared for whatever may come in 
the future. (But don' let you stop by the re-design, I am willing to port 
whatever you write using the current KServiceLocator)

I would also be glad to help with whatever you need for a SLP-based solution 
(designing a service template and so on).

bye..
