	plasma-nm has two regressions to fix before any release: 1. 
Bluetooth connection creation. Bluedevil calles networkmanagement_configshell 
for this, we need to implement something that works for both 
networkmanagement and plasma-nm. 2. Port the import/export vpn settings 
feature from networkmanagement.

	There is also the change to make plasma-nm use the same secrets 
stored in kwallet that networkmanagement uses. This is to simplify the migration 
process from networkmanagement to plasma-nm. After al those things 
fixed/implemented we can release plasma-nm, receive the feedback and start 
fixing the bugs reported. I am expecting a lot of bugs to be reported once we 
release plasma-nm, some of them are going to be missing features that are 
implemented in networkmanagement. We should take those missing features 
seriously, removing features was one of the main complaints about KDE 4 long 
ago when it was first released. I would not like that to happen to plasma-nm. 

	Another thing that plasma-nm needs is a usability study. I do not 
know if we can do that during the BoF, but at least I would like everybody there 
to send me their oppinions about what can be improved.

	That is ok to me. There is this bug in kmix that I would like to help 
fixing:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317926

	There is also the ark2 patches in my scratch repo that needs more 
reviewing. But that depends on Raphael's schedule and he has been almost 
unavailable since last year :-(. Raphael is Ark's maintainer.
