I am not involved in any geolocation work but if this is mainly about making 
geoclue2 available as a position provider for Qt applications then contacting 
the people working on QtLocation might be the way to go.
It already seems to have a geoclue provider plugin, but that could be geoclue1

https://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qtlocation/source/4c0599e2537a439f59ee91e1561c1c3ecf0b34e0:src/plugins/position/geoclue

That is for Qt5, so it would take a while until it is used by KDE applications 
developers.

Cheers,
Kevin
