Summary
revisit KDE 4.3 feature page:
 * In official KDE 4.3 announcement the feature of using Google Calendar in KOrganizer was promoted.
 * But the corresponding googledata package wasn't released as an Extragear package and only exists in KDE's svn.
 * 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.

get.fedoraproject.org:
 * Over the weekend there were a large discussion about a new design for get.fedoraproject.org.
 * MáirínDuffy requested our goals for such a design. 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.

KDE 4.3.1:
 * KDE 4.3.1 will be tagged on Aug 27.
 * 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.

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.

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.
