Eike:
* I've been consumed by eV stuff and to be honest a side project (new app to 
control UAVs)
started three things still to be finished:
* adding Folder-based places widget to Add Widgets, needs some work in the 
framework and a few .desktop files
* making the screenlocker prompt immediately when waking up from suspend
* toying with showing action shortcuts in action delegates in kirigami drawers 
when a keyboard is around
* finding Kirigami bugs while hacking on my app and sending them to Marco or 
patching things I guess

Roman:
* Pushed my Xwl Dnd patches to KWayland. KWin patches hopefully follow this 
week.
 Was at Plasma Mobile sprint last week. Many highly motivated and skilled 
people attanded. Also it was nice to see Dorota and Tobias from Purism attand. 
I think we should foster these relations to get more people working on design 
and technology of Plasma Mobile in the future. There would definitely be some 
momentum ready to push forward Plasma Mobile.
* To enable this I think we need to work a bit more on the basics. We 
currently don't have a well-defined mechanism for convergence in KWin (we use 
static config files and scripts on Plasma Mobile to force KWin into a mobile-
like interface). For that I propose a more integrated solution in KWin. 
Dorota, Marco and I discussed this at the sprint and we thought about a 
protocol to inform clients about the current preferred usage mode:
