The conversion rules for koffice are mostly done; I heard something about the 
tags that need work but I'm not sure we even use tags (branches are there).

The conversion rules for the rest of KDE are still in a lot of need of 
manpower and slowly people are joining in.

The uploading of the project to gitorious.org would likely raise some eyebrows 
at this time. Or even in March. If we go ahead of the rest of KDE then I think 
I've been digging my own grave by telling other projects that they should 
instead work with the rest of KDE and have us leave no man behind.
In my defense; at that time KO was planning to do some of the writing of those 
rules too, but that was prioritized down a bit since.

For what its worth; I agree with that. I tend to just poke someone again if 
they are not reviewing my patch in a timely manner or something like that. I 
think the thing we here all can improve on is open communication. More 
communication makes the whole rule of "48 hours" unneeded.

More rules and regulations tend to be a sign there is a social problem, almost 
always due to communication, technical solutions or even rules tend to not 
solve those.
