Summary
Systray backport
 * This is a backport of KDE 4.2's systray which replaces the systray plasmoid entirely.
 * The main reason for including this would be the high visibility of ugly backgrounds of the KDE4 systray applets.
 * As this backport was proposed by JaroslavReznik who wasn't present at meeting time the decision was postponed.

Desktop User Guide
 * (This topic wasn't discussed)

'''additional packages for live images (~20 megs free)
 * Since the input-methods group was removed from fedora-live-base.ks there is plenty of free space.
 * These packages were added after the Preview release was composed: digikam, kdeedu-kstars, konq-plugins, pavucontrol, twinkle.
 * One proposal was lancelot which will be included in the next push of the kickstart.
 * There were no other packages proposed, so the remaining free space (about 20 megs minus lancelot) could be used for localized spins.

#468889 - libldap-2.4.so.2: undefined symbol: ldap_int_tls_destroy
 * "kcmshell4 kdm" crashes with an undefined symbol error after hitting cancel.
 * As a workaround for this kcm_kdm will be linked against ldap.
 * This change will be tagged as f10-final as soon as possible.

Open discussion:
 * Plans for KDE 4.1.3:
 * KDE 4.1.3 is scheduled to be released on Nov 05 2008.
 * As it's too risky to include it in F10-release, it will be released as an update for F10.
 * KDE 4.1.3 will also be released as an update for F9.


 * battery applet:
 * Because of guidance the battery applet will be removed from the default setting.
