    i think components are fine, maybe there could be a couple more
    but thise are
    fine. in this particular case containment-desktop means strictly
    what happens
    in the desktop background area, while desktop is the plasma
    desktop shell
    application, the actual executable that creates desktops, panels
    etc. yeah i
    know, jargon :/

OK, clear. If there is one place where jargon is allowed, it is BKO, as long as it is being used consistently. I guess there has been a fair amount of mix up there, but I'll check.

    something that would be very useful i think is a day of irc
    meeting with you
    guys to do this kind of not immediately obvious prioritization and
    maybe with
    people taking tasks for actually fixing the ones with more priority.

    next weeks are quite thehorror (talking at least for me and
    probably aaron) we
    could manage to do something in the second half of june a bit
    before akademy
    perhaps?


I'll try and keep a list of bugs to check. When life allows it, I lazily am around at irc, so if anyone is bored ;) A (minor) bugdays would be useful, but in the case of late June I would combine oldbug-compression with the beta-polishing and a focus on the latest bugs and regressions. Other than that, there is no real urgency for me - as long as we can work our way to a reliable (and short) buglist.

Some bugs need to be fixed before 4.9 is out: for example the Weather Station applet does not display anything anymore (API changes from ions I suppose) so it'll be either fixed or removed as we cannot seriously ship things that are really broken.
