Ian Ventura-Whiting committed changes in /trunk/playground/base/datasources:

This is the first commit to convert the Qt-based data sources and ODBC driver configuration tool to a KDE 4 KCM. At the moment the KCM is just a shell for the next few commits, it only gets a list of data sources.

There will be a few changes to this KCM that will set it appart from other ODBC configuration tools. The Data Source configuration tools on other platforms offer the user a complex interface. This KCM will offer an interface that users of the other platform tools will be familiar with but will hide functionality that only the root user can configure. This configuration tool will have wizards, like the previous version, to simpify the configuration of data sources and only offer the options that are relevent. The advanced configuration functionality will not be removed and advanced users will be able to easily configure those settings.

The next few commits will include the following:
* Users: Add/modify/delete User Data Sources
* Root Only: Add/modify/delete System and File Data Sources
* Root Only: Auto-detection and configuration of ODBC drivers
* Root Only: Confiugre Debug options
