- PolicyKit integration (#428212) [1]
- kde-settings and KDE 4 (#426153) [2]
- last preparations for the beta 
- release notes

= Summary =

o PolicyKit integration: 
- no progress 

o kde-settings and KDE 4: 
- KDE 4 wants the profile directory settings in /etc/kde4rc, not /etc/kderc. 
- kde-settings now creates that file. 
- There is also a bug in kdelibs where kdeglobals isn't found in the profile 
directory which is now fixed by a patch. 
- So our fedora specific KDE settings are being honored now. 

o last preparations for the beta: 
- khelpcenter issue for KDE 3 apps is fixed in kdebase-runtime. [1]
- Package naming change: qt -> qt3 / qt4 -> qt [2]
 - The proper provides will be added to qt(3) after the meeting and it will be 
included in Fedora 9 Beta. 
 - The renaming of the packages will happen ASAP but after the beta. 
- kdm and SELinux (#421951): [3]
 - kdm should now be able to login the user but still prints some warnings. 
 - KevinKofler tracked down the code that is most likely what SELinux doesn't 
like. 
 - Because the issue is down to warnings it isn't a blocker anymore but it's 
still worth to be fixed. 
 - We're waiting for DanielWalsh at the moment if he could help us with it. 
- knetworkmanager 
 - knetworkmanager will be made EOL because there is not much progress of 
supporting NetworkManager-0.7 und current svn code is still busted and would 
also lack features in comparison to nm-applet. 
 - Without knetworkmanager being a dummy package for nm-applet we could do 
parallel testing with the real knetworkmanager when it actually builds. 
 - DennisGilmore will set up a FAQ for knetworkmanager on this. 
NetworkManager-gnome will be installed by default on the live images. 
 - If it will be default also in @kde-desktop will be decided later and 
depends on if Networkmanager will be used in default setup in Fedora 9. 

o release notes: 
- Beta release notes should be fine. 
- KevinKofler will write the beats for KDE ASAP (deadline is 16 March 2008).
