I would have to agree with Olaf about this being a concern, although I 
/hope/ the kdelibs API changes are essentially in place (or will be this 
Monday). Otherwise maybe we can say that u7y/a11y changes are excepted 
from the hard freeze.

AFAIK configuration is SC (and probably BC) so isn't an issue, the API's 
should be done :-).

Should be done this Monday I hope! :-)

Hehe... see http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.core/43251.

Right. I would really like to have at least the 25th as a last chance to 
make fixes :-). However I was indeed planning on that being it for SIC's.
