QA process is not a 24hr deal... =) It sometimes takes a little bit
longer, and kdelibs is a big package that needs thorough testing
(this isn't cooker we're talking about!). So the delay is not in
mirroring, but in QA. We could do it faster and not as thorough, but
then we'd be doing it over again many more times, I'm sure.
