o Topic 1
- notes

o Celebration of Fedora 12 going GOLD:
* The KDE-SIG celebrated the gold status of Fedora 12.
* With Hello Chissini de Castro a new KDE-SIG member was introduced.
* He has been working for Connectiva/Mandriva for over 10 years and is also a 
KDE developer for a long time. 

o Status of KDE 4.3.3:
* KDE 4.3.3 is imported into CVS for F10 and F11, work on F12 is ongoing.
* (Existing) Extragear for KDE 4.3.3 packages will follow when buildroot is 
ready.
* KDE 4.3.3 will be the last update for F10 which will EOL soon. 

o Features for F13:
* KDE related features and their owners for Fedora 13:
- phonon/pulseaudio integration (KevinKofler)
- knetworkmanager (RexDieter)
- polkit-1 in KDE (JaroslavReznik)
- Firefox/OpenOffice.org integration in KDE (LukasTinkl)
- Prepare a wiki page outlining KDE features in F13 to work on (LukasTinkl) 
[1]

o package splitting:
* SebastianVahl proposed a splitting of KDE packages as a possible Feature for 
F13.
* Splits could be done on a per-app basis or a split out of the "popular" 
packages.
* First pros/cons were discussed in the meeting:
- more control over the installed packages (+)
- better support for a minimal runtime for small targets (like netbooks) (+)
- huge increase of metadata to download (--)
- more work for packagers (-)
- more complexity for users (-) 
* SebastianVahl will prepare a wiki page with pros/cons and a documentation of 
the splitting already done as a basis for further discussions.
