The thing I see happening in plasma is that cool plugins get packaged by 
distributors early. Even before they are officially released.
But for sure the plugin should be at one point be released and that can happen 
in the koffice repository.

The point of the kofficeplugins repo among others is to fix this issue; keep the 
not-yet-finished plugins in one place. Allow better collaboration exactly like 
this one :)

I think it helps a lot to make the plugin available as early as possible in 
kofficeplugins for everyone to play with and to find and report issues. It would 
give us all a get a good feel for how much work is left to do.
And when we think its ready for release on the millions of KOffice users, it can 
be released as part of the koffice tarballs inside the plugins dir :-)
