Right. The indicator is actually made of 3 parts:
* indicator-applet, which is a gnome-panel compatible shell hosting...
* ... the indicator-applet, which is the actual indicator
* and libindicate which is the client side library made to simplify the 
application developers life (well, provided you're a Gnome application 
developer for the moment that is...)

What we need to discuss is which part we need to develop for the KDE 
desktop, which one we can re-use on KDE, which one we can share between 
Gnome and KDE.
