Summary
 Nodoka-Theme for KDE:
 * LaithJuwaidah has adapted Nodoka-Metacity-Theme to dekorator
 * We will probably need to port dekorator to KDE4 (because it's maintainer seems to stop working on it)
 * Another option would be to use native port for kwin4
 * A third option would be to use the code of polyester (it's looking is fairly close the same and is available for KDE3 and KDE4)
 * It's still undecided in which package it should be put
 * The theme would only be available as an optional update and not set as default in Fedora 8

Changing the wallpaper every hour:
 * LaithJuwaidah has written a perl script to change the wallpaper every hour (like Gnome does now with Infinity wallpaper)
 * using this script with kdewebdesktop would be prefered over an usage in cron

supposed early updates for F8:
 * KDE 3.95.0 development platform
 * There are also some minor updates in kde-settings and fedorainfinity-kdm-theme
 * kdegames4 as an replacement for kdegames(3) would only be an option if sound is working

The weekly talk about KDE4:
 * kdelibs4 for KDE 3.95.0 is already done, kdepimlibs will follow
 * kdebase-runtime will be included into existing kdebase4
 * We will need reviews for the splitting of KDE4's kdebase package
