, kNewStuff and store.kde are difficult to use because of outdated extensions.

It was pointed out that tracking compatibility was difficult because of the
large amount of extensions.

Maybe it would be interesting to do something similar to wordpress: each
extension can be declared to be compatible for a range of versions of
wordpress.
This range of compatible versions can be based on the developers input, or on
the users feedback.

Implementing this kind of mechanism could allow users to tag the extensions as
compatible or not with specific kde versions.
Of course, developer's choices would superseed users reports up to the version
he tagged.

I hope I was clear...
Thanks a lot for your work !
