Only apologize for things you regret.

I agree with Achim, a generated changelog, a manually edited NEWS and a 
revision marker somewhere.

You can generate a good changelog with this command (adjusted to your path):
svn log -v --xml \
    https://toma@svn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/playground/utils/rsibreak \
 | python /usr/src/kde/branches/KDE/3.5/kde-common/release/svn2log.py  \
          -u /usr/src/kde/branches/KDE/3.5/kde-common/accounts

(for rsibreak, i added the command in a script and added it to svn, and delete 
it in the release script, see playground/utils/rsibreak).

> * new html export plugin

Is the old one deleted already? If not I vote for removal. Bugs can be closed.

?

Yes, lets bring out  a rc3, and two weeks later the final. In the meanwhile a 
feature and messagefreeze.

Yes, we should release them too. If there has been no change, at least there 
are updated translations.
