Monday meeting notes for 13/2/2023

[Marco Martin]

Fushan
* KDE Connect will no longer hijack the notification interface used in
libnotification thanks to gdbus's filter function that does not exist
in qdbus.
* This can be merged in 5.27.3 to remedy the klipper bug existing in
5.27 beta and 5.27.0:
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/2730
* What do you think of remembering the last used app in appchooser?
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/xdg-desktop-portal-kde/-/merge_requests/179
[discussion: can be made per-mimetype? might be difficult]
* I wonder if the portal can use something from KIO
* promptUserForApplication(KJob *job, const QList<QUrl> &urls, const
QString &mimeType) override Oh Yes there is mimeType!
* will make changes soon

Xaver
* I'm currently working on some output management stuff, to move
output setting management into KWin on Wayland.
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kscreen/-/merge_requests/192 is in
preparation for that, pls review or complain if you need that setting
for some reason
* ping on https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kscreen/-/merge_requests/187 too

Jonathan

Nico
* Ported a few apps/libs to KF6
* Fixed up some Plasma stuff wrt Kirigami and P5support API changes

a couple of places, e.g. the portal-based dialogs no longer get "-
Portal" appended to the title
* Fixed network KCM for Qt6:
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-nm/-/merge_requests/232

KDE Invent (Gitlab)
* goal is to make it a normal framework, perhaps needs a new name,
dunno and for sure some api refactors (hate the theme class which is
also a kpackage clone, half a kirigami.Theme clone but is kinda
needed)
