More than qualifies.  It's a great, and rather widely-used, general C++
library, and the code is solid and the upstream active.

Upstream is rather active, and it's reasonably widely-used
(gnome-phone-manager will soon use it, apparently), but I can't speak as
to how defensively it's coded, security-wise.

Written by the same guy who did JuK; the only reason it's not in
kdemultimedia is that he wanted it to be more generic.  Good code,
active upstream.
