Summary

should we stop shipping the broken phonon-backend-gstreamer?

• the consensus is to keep shipping it, it's not the default anyway (kkofler)
• ship it, there is nothing broken with it, ltinkl has been using it for some months already without any major problems
• https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=503260 (we've got 2 issues at least to sort out: 1. how to build support phonon (qt or standalone), 2. depending on 1, how best to build/ship phonon backends) (rdieter)

KDE 4.2.4 updates

• KDE 4.2.4 CVS done for F10/F11, builds underway (ltinkl)
• Kevin is backporting to F9 (kkofler)
• extragear and kde-l10n still TODO (ltinkl)

Qt 4.5.1 updates

• rssnow has a temporary hack, amarok-2.1 helps, and the yum issue is worked-around via a well-placed Obsoletes (rdieter)
• qt-4.5.1 is ready for stable updates (rdieter)

amarok-2.1 status

• amarok-2.1 landing... , for F-10 at least, means blocking on libgpod-0.7.0 batch update too

patch numbering and metadata

• we should unify the way we number patches and document them
• ltinkl to prepare a draft guideline on wiki

recent bugs

Bug 502953 - kdm switches manually selected session after entering userid

• we will drop the offending patch as a temporary solution (than)
