 I just copied most of that from somewhere, feel free to fix in CVS.

 Well yes, that's the theory. It's just that theory and reality conflict a bit 
here right now :).

 Actually strictly speaking none of that needs to be shared, if the definite 
specification is in API.txt then it could be possible to have everything for 
generation separated for every binding/daemon/whatever. And since eventually 
the KDE daemon should become part of KDE and the same for others this is 
likely to happen.

 It would be nice to share this if possible, but I'm not sure if it'd be worth 
it. Specific bindings/daemons might need their specific support. But I 
wouldn't mind the current generator being replaced by something using C++ STL 
instead of the few Qt classes that I used because I did, or even something 
let's say Python-based.
