    Proposed Topics

    • Qt5 --> Andy?
    • KDE frameworks --> Patrick?
    • Packaging / NSIS / MSI how to integrate in emerge even better.
    • "Autoupdates" for Standalone software like Kontact / Amarok / Calligra
    • Sandboxing
    • Oxygen or a more Native look as the default?
    • Tests / Unittests (Maybe more of a "to hack" on topic, but It would be cool if we could make better use of them)

    Things to hack on

    • Update mingw-w64 to gcc 4.7 as 4.6 is neded by Qt 5
    • Patch Mysql to build with mingw
    • Removing Version numbers from filenames in emerge
    • Let's build the frameworks?
    • Website
