Martin

kde:kpackage)

- timezones support in digiclock is almost ready (RR coming up)

Jens:
- started "Made for Plasma"
- discussing how to balance out messages "this fits a Plasma workspace really 
well", yet "application runs on *any* desktop, not just Plasma" -- ideas 
welcome
- Worked on design of Calamaris installer

Jonathan:
- has to push tags
- tarballing on Thursday planned

Vishesh:
- Work on Dialog w/ Marco

- Splitting out baloo-related code for Akonadi into akonadi-search repo
- API adjustments for Baloo

sebas:
- pluginloader: dataengines don't need ksycoca anymore (in my branch)
- indexed reading for a single servicetype is 3.5 - 8 times faster than 
ksycoca
- still bit undecided where the caching and reading from cache should go, 
perhaps kservice
- to work more on pluginloader and libkscreen wayland backend
