Nicofee:
* Killed the phonon KCM
* Patched Pulseaudio to not load module-device-manager for us
* This means we should be able to use switch-on-connect by default
* Debugged an issue in PA. Profiles that weren't actually useful were
still marked as available. Apparently this is already fixed in master
* Added a bunch of icons to the kicker/kickoff context menu
* Added a bunch of icons to the kicker/kickoff context menu
* Added icons to jumplistactions of Konsole, Falkon and Libreoffice
* Fixed issue with the speaker test in plasma-pa KCM
Kai Uwe:
plasma-browser-integration:
* Did a new release \o/
* https://blog.broulik.de/2019/08/plasma-browser-integration-1-6/
* and a 1.6.1 hotfix two days later :D
* Uses KCrash now. You get DrKonqi when the native host crashes
Notifications:
* Did some testing and research on KDE Connect's notification sync,
now that I have a phone that supports it :)
* Only apps with the same "origin" are grouped together now
Plasma:
* KSplash is delayed until wallpaper has loaded now
* Changing color scheme no longer reloads KWin configuration
* Makes the transition a lot less jarring. Didn't see why that
would still be neccessary with KDecoration2
* Implemented JobViewV3, a new job view API using variant maps
instead of dozens of methods
* Implementation in KIO/KJobWidgets pending
Other:
* KFilePlacesView uses asynchronous KIO::FileSystemFreeSpaceJob for
"free space" overlay in file dialog
* Windows thumbnails (EXE, ICO, CUR) are now cached
* I don't see where they should be trated differently than any
other image. It's not like they're changing on their own
* Dolphin's status bar doesn't erroneously show "Sorting..." while
it's actually still loading the directory
* Made BlueDevil's discovery page use KBusyIndicatorWidget instead of
KPixmapSequence

* I put up my patch series for output duplication. See for example
here: https://phabricator.kde.org/D23666
Diff 23666 "[kcm] Provide graphical interface to replicate
outputs" [Needs Review] https://phabricator.kde.org/D23666
* That's a big change and I think it can generate quite some buzz if
we announce it correctly.
* For that I would like us to make an effort to still get it in 5.17.
* Take a look at the video to see how it works:

* There is one patch which has priority because of frameworks release:

**KSysGuard**
* Process plugins and network plugin still pending, but stuff is
happening there.
* Landed https://phabricator.kde.org/D23566 which is a first step to a
QML plugin for KSysGuard.
**Kirigami**
* Some work on making sure that PrivateActionToolButton behaves
correctly with menus (https://phabricator.kde.org/D23463)
* Uncovered a bug that caused the entire page context menu not to show
up, already fixed (https://phabricator.kde.org/D23499)
* Use PrivateActionToolButton for overflow menu button, could use a
re-review on this one. (https://phabricator.kde.org/D23502)
* Display icons for submenus in overflow menu and other action menus.

# Plasma
* fixing bugs on the new applet layout manager, unhearted by its usage
in the plasma mobile homescreen
# Plasma mobile
* made saving and loading launcher positions work correctly
* Auto scrolling while dragging icons around
* in general, polishing, polishing polishing to make it ready to
drop-in replace the current phone homescreen
* Testing on the phone and debugging problems that happen there too
(still a misterious phone-specific crash remaining)
