So far the agenda is as below. If any more topics need to be added, please let
me know. As scarabeus is away, I will be presiding the meeting. Anyone
interested is invited to attend.

KDE topics
==========

1. Proposition to split desktop profile to: KDE, Gnome, (and maybe some
others).

2. Discussion of KDE4 split ebuild policy. I think we need to sanitize it a
bit (more functional/application approach) - especially regarding kdepim,
kdebase-workspace.


Qt topics
=========

3. Qt own subproject page under http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/

4. Policy regarding pre-releases (beta/rc)

5. Proposition to return to monolithic Qt ebuild

With that under discussion, what about a kde (or full desktop profile
tree) amd64 no-multilib profile?

I've been using no-multilib for some time, but it doesn't have a desktop
subprofile. With multi-parent cascading, it shouldn't be difficult to
create one, kde specifically or desktop. Just having the appropriate
no-multilib and kde or desktop as parents should do it I think. That
should take care of masking the 32-bit-only stuff and setting libdir and
whatever, plus setting grub-static as default system bootloader, which is
more or less what no-multilib does, AFAIK.

Could we please start with Qt topics first as I have to be back in the army
camp by 2100 UTC?

Many thanks
