Hello, 
I disscussed with Riddell in #kubuntu-devel about including ipodslave in main 
and it was decided that it would be worth trying so {I,we} worked on a 
MainInclusionReport[0] and its in the Que[1] . I figured you would see the 
edit on the wiki and get to the report when you had time, meantime Riddell 
sugested I rebuild it without the universe deps and have it uploaded and 
ready. Hope this clears up the actions so far. 

As for the "What should this be good for?" its so we can enable konqueror 
to "do the right thing" when the ipod icon is clicked on the desktop after it 
has been inserted by opening this kio-slave "ipod:/" , right now the only 
ipod support in the desktop is Amarok and it is cumbersum for new users to 
get used to vs the windows way or even other Linux's such as SuSE that do it 
with ipodslave by default. I'm willing to keep this maintained ( through 
sponsors untill someday I make ubuntu-core-dev ) and it is well maintained by 
both upstream and SuSE contributions.
