I'm not sure if I understood what you mean with "whatever metadata can
be retrieved from kde.org".

By change, download.kde.org indeed provides a "ls-lR" and "ls-lR.bz"
file at the top-level. I was not aware of this up to just now. Using
this might be an option (It is lagging a bit, though I think this is
acceptable. From what I've ssen I guess it is generated each hour if
some file changed.)

So for kde we might find a simpler solution. But in the long-run IMHO we
need a simple html parser.

I'm not skilled enough in scheme/guile to write such a parser, sorry.
