Summary
Last preparations for Fedora 8:
- New ksplash with InfinityTheme was imported into kde-settings
- Some multilib and upgrade path issues were fixed by RexDieter this morning
- Also strigi-libs has got some multilib fixes
KDE-Bits for the Release Summary:
- Things that could/should be mentioned or enhanced:
- kde-desktop-effects
- knetworkmanager and nm-applet
- KDE 4 Development Platform
Status of inclusion of kde-desktop-effects in f8final:
- compiz-manager was approved by rel-eng for inclusion.
- during the meeting there was the confirmation that kde-desktop-effects would be included into compiz-kde
- So only compiz-kde needs to be approved by rel-eng to be included in f8final
- compiz-kde was also added as default to kde-desktop group in comps.xml
Prepare for the next development cycle (F9, kde4, all that jazz):
- The next development cycle is almost covered by KDE 4.0 (ETA: Dec, 11 2007)
- There must be made a decision which bits of KDE3 should be kept (at least kdebase3 and kdelibs3)
- kdegames4 and kdeedu4 are already done
- importing kdebase(4)-workspace and re-placing the Conflicts/Provides/Obsoletes has to be done mostly together
- Due to the work that Upstream has done to minimize the conflicts, many of the current hacks could be removed
- kdebase3 will need a lot of purging to keep only the stuff which doesn't conflict
- KDE4 should be imported into Rawhide asap
Open discussion:
- The now used kdepim-enterprise would be merged into KDE 3.5.9 by upstream
- There were some discussion (or guessing) if kmail would be shipped with kdepim4 by upstream
- So we have to probably ship kdepim3
Comments
(These comments are written after the meeting)
