Summary
Replacing gnome-packagekit with kpackagekit on KDE live images?
 * kpackagekit will be proposed as default on Snapshot2.
 * If the testing doesn't go well this change will be reverted.
 * It wasn't decided during the meeting whether this only affects the live images or whether we also make the change in comps.

Release notes
 * The Release Notes were updated to match the current KDE desktop and should be complete now.
 * Unfortunately the Desktop User Guide is still outdated.
 * We'll try chop this into smaller pieces to get this fixed soon (though any help here is appreciated).
 * JaroslavReznik will coordinate these efforts.

artwork: kdm, ksplash, kwin background:
 * KSplash: only widescreen display support is missing.
 * KDM: work is still ongoing.
 * The backgrounds have to be packaged for KSplash and KDM.

kde-4.1.2 status, ready for (stable) updates soon?:
 * The issue with kioslaves not dying on exit was fixed today.
 * KDE 4.1.2 will be pushed to stable on Friday if no other blockers appear.
 * After that the autohide backport for plasma's panel will be pushed to testing.

kde-4.2.x cvs import status:
 * According to LorenzoVillani, KDE 4.1.69 is building fine except kdebindings and kdebase.
 * The Fedora patches have to be re-checked if they all apply correctly.
 * Also the specfiles should be reviewed before actually getting imported into CVS.

F10/rawhide testing:
 * (please see the log file for a list of short statements)
