Warning
If you clear a task, please write "Completed" near it. If you are still working on it, please put your name. Percentage of the work done is accepted.

Tasks

If you want to claim a task, please put your name (or nickname, both is better) in brackets near the task you wish to claim. Please add it when you start working on it, and if you stop, please remove it, so we can know "who is working on what" and what tasks still needs to be started.

And, of course, this will avoid duplication of work. Thanks a lot! =)

Note
This is a roughly sorted list of tasks that popped out during the meeting. We probably need to categorize it better, like seeing which task is blocker for which other, setting priority, split between "research" and "coding" and things like that. Still sounds like a premature thing though.

KRunner

Runners

pull in options from kdesktop/minicli.cpp and merge into shell and app runners
Search Runner: use strigi (blocked by Xesam)
runners, runners and more runners!

Interface

options slide drawer animation

Misc

install D-Bus autoactivation service
QtScript bindings to AbstractRunner

Plasma

This is what we are focusing on implementing right now:

general libplasma
- unit tests. (Bertjan Broeksema, bbroeksema)
- api documentation reviews
- Applet needs a way to access resources for customization (think: clock faces)
- Need to implement the math in Phase to update the intervals according to the CurveShape, ala QTimeLine (ask aseigo for more details if you find that cryptic ;)

Applets
- add global settings config page, if it exists in the Package (which means adding a pair of entries in packages.cpp for globalconfigui and globalconfigxml), alongside the per-applet ones

systray
- should have borders so as to be able to live on desktop
- grid layout of icons would be nice

plasmagik
- unit tests
- resuscitate trunk/playground/base/plasma/plasmagik (adjam, ruphy)

Corona (QGraphicsScene subclass)
- Zooming: 3-level zooming needs to be supported. 100% == 1 item group at full zoom; 50% == all item groups visible with panning with each item replaced by a simple icon; 10% == all item groups visible without panning, each group replaced by a simple icon and items not painted at all
- Ability to define default panel/desktop/applet layouts without modifying loadDefaultSetup code, e.g. with config files on disk.

Views

Widgets Here is a page describing the nature of these widgets. Widgets still needed that aren't implemented yet are:
- Icon needs the icon hover feature to be finished
- An html widget: 4.1
- panner widget that shows N QGraphicsViewItems at a time in a fancy manner (asiraj)

DataEngine
- Configuration parameters for sources

We also have:

Implement Zack's physical equations for animations

Nice to have:

Implement python bindings of Plasma
Associate units with a data source's data?
