For me currently the absolute showstoppers are:
- Currently in Testing, resources cannot be added ( 
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=306763 ).
- I don't know if it's a bug or a usability problem, but I still can't seem to 
register an account for Bodega Store (that's how sebas calls it in his draft 
announcement, is it the official name?), which is a very serious problem. I get 
to the registration form, but when I try to send the data, nothing happens.  
However I can't login with the data I just entered, so it doesn't look like 
the account has been created. We cannot release Bodega Store like this. 

Other imho major problems are these:

- Bangarang still crashes as soon as one tries to access the Media Lists, 
thereby making it pretty much useless unless one starts it directly with a file 
to be played. Probably has to be fixed by the Bangarang dev but it seems to 
only occur on PA.
- The problem with the task switcher overlapping the keyboard  ( 
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=293051 ) is not catastrophic, but makes 
us look pretty bad
- Power Management still seems to have some weirdnesses (e.g. 
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=304877 )

The blockers definitely have to be fixed before we can release. I would 
definitely not recommend releasing with the major problems still there, since 
it would make us look bad, but they at least leave PA in a usable state.

Cheers,
Thomas
