Summary
Latest changes before final release:
 * KDE should be fine for release.
 * Only the KDM/Xorg logout issue is still being worked on (#443320 ).

Last-minute release notes (deadline May 1st):
 * Last-minute release notes should be complete.

KDE 4.0.4 for F9 0-day updates:
 * KDE 4.0.4 is going to be tagged tomorrow.
 * So the earliest inclusion in F9 would be as an update on release day.
 * But this will need external testing because there is no updates-testing repository until release.
 * So KDE 4.0.4 will be build shortly before the release and be pushed to updates-testing on release day.

KDE 4.1 snapshots for F10:
 * Alpha tarballs were release recently.
 * LorenzoVillani did some initial work on which we could build upon.
 * Dependencies on libplasma which got a API rewrite and will need updates/rebuilds: compiz-kde, kdenetwork, kdeutils, kdebase-workspace-*, extragear-plasma.
 * With 4.1, kdesdk should obsolete kaider and kdeutils should obsolete okteta.
 * When KDE 4.1 is released it will be also released as an update to Fedora 9 (but without kdepim-4.1).
 * Before KDE 4.1 hits Rawhide it will be announced to fedora-devel-announce.

Open discussion:
 * In some cases kdebase (from KDE 4) isn't installed during an update from F8 (kdebase-workspace obsoletes kdebase-3.5.x).
 * To handle these situations kdebase-workspace will require kdebase4.
