You're being overdramatic here. It's the same repo that is being 
used to test latest KDE stuff right now before it goes to rawhide 
and to the releases. It's built by same people who make actual 
releases. It's KDE team's repo, it's Rex's old repo/project before
KDE got proper status in Fedora.

How you could use its problems (that apparently don't even exist) as 
an argument and reason to cause problems for people who just want to 
use those kde bugfix releases in old, stable Fedora release?
