= Summary =

o revisit KDE 4.3 feature page:
* In official KDE 4.3 announcement the feature of using Google Calendar in 
KOrganizer was promoted. [1]
* But the corresponding googledata package wasn't released as an Extragear 
package and only exists in KDE's svn. [2]
* To use the feature someone has to package it for Fedora when a tarball is 
released.
* Until then this will be removed from the feature page. [3]

o get.fedoraproject.org:
* Over the weekend there were a large discussion about a new design for 
get.fedoraproject.org. [4]
* MáirínDuffy requested our goals for such a design. [5] So we should take 
this to the fedora-kde mailinglist.
* Additionally an own subdomain for our KDE spin would be interesting.
* StephenParrish will contact Fedora Board to get a subdomain up. 

o KDE 4.3.1:
* KDE 4.3.1 will be tagged on Aug 27. [6]
* ThanNgo will prepare the packages for Rawhide.
* LukasTinkl will take care of the updates for F-11 and F-10.
* SebastianVahl will build the corresponding Extragear packages. 

o phonon-backend-gstreamer:
* phonon-backend-gstreamer was added as default phonon backend in Rawhide.
* Until now there were no negative feedback.
* The warning about the default setup (pulseaudio) should be fixed now. 

o Must-fix bugs for F12:
* #515539 - prelink: process for the fileprotocol / desktop protocol died 
unexpectedly
 - It's still unclear what causes this problems and they will need further 
attention. 
* #499968 - PolicyKit 1 authentication issues with KPackageKit
 - gnome-authentification-agent could be used with KPackageKit.
 - A new svn release of PackageKit in rawhide should fix the errors 
KPackageKit is having.
 - StephenParrish will build a new KPackageKit snapshot which should fix some 
of the regressions.
