+1. Roll call
+alexxy, creffett, dilfridge, johu, kensington, reavertm
+
+Welcome new developers kensington and creffett. Thanks to JoseJX for
+participating as member of the powerpc team.
+
+2. Add LINGUAS support to cmake-utils.eclass
+Agreed to add a loop like that in qt4-r2.eclass to reduce ebuild code. It
+expands the contents of LANGS to IUSE as linguas_*. A generic linguas handling
+is not planed yet.
+
+3. Live KDE ebuilds have tests restricted
+The usefulness of tests on live ebuilds was brought into question, since there
+are enough problems with tests on normal releases. Agreed to enable tests when
+I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING is set.
+
+4. KDE 4.8 stabilization and PowerPC
+The stabilization and keywording was pending up to the team meeting date,
+because of gcc47 as requirement to restore the keywords on ppc/ppc64. This
+blocker was mistaken added. PowerPC needs just Qt 4.8.1 to keyword KDE 4.8.
+So there are no reasons the discuss to drop the ppc support from kde-base.
+We never stabilized a KDE version on ppc64, because ppc64 has problems with
+the size of the table of contents for ELF function calls that will be fixed
+with gcc 4.7. johu ask for voting on dropping ppc64 at all. No real
+majority/opinions about it. JoseJX prefers that ~ppc64 not be dropped from KDE
+keywords. Agreed that JoseJX would keyword ~ppc, and if there were no problems
+would also keyword ~ppc64, topic will be revisited.
+
+5. Bugs
+* Trying to change full name in KDE System Settings results in error or crash
+https://bugs.gentoo.org/380899
+There is an existing workaround to disable the change full name functionality.
+kensington will talk to upstream about the issue, and if there is no good
+response in 2 weeks' time, we will apply the workaround.
+
+* app-cdr/k3b: use media-libs/musicbrainz:3 instead of :1
+https://bugs.gentoo.org/410347
+Agreed that musicbrainz:1 is obsolete and that k3b does not appear to actually
+use musicbrainz even when enabled. Dependency on musicbrainz will be dropped.
+
+* dev-util/cmake: FindPythonLibs behaviour broken by Gentoo patches
+https://bugs.gentoo.org/405181
+Dilfridge said that we should remove the patches and use command-line defines
+to force specific python versions, agreed to test that.
+
+* kde-misc/networkmanagement-0.9.0 and kde-misc/networkmanagement-0.8_p20110714
+wrong doc dir specified - https://bugs.gentoo.org/410139
+Nobody has been able to reproduce the bug. Dilfridge suggested asking for more
+information and will investigate further.
+
+* kde-misc/interceptor - KDE4 Plasmoid - intercept (catch) the log info from
+the syslog - https://bugs.gentoo.org/383733
+creffett suggested dropping this request because it requires too many big
+configuration changes for a plasmoid. Agreed to remove kde from CC list and
+suggest taking the ebuild to sunrise.
+
+* dev-util/cmake-2.8.6-r4 - stop Xvfb after failed test phase
+https://bugs.gentoo.org/406353
+Need input from gentoo-portage team about what phase could be used to clean up
+xvfb after test failures. Kensington mentioned that the same issue will affect
+virtualdbus.
+
+6. Open Floor
+* KDE 4.9 Beta
+Dilfridge reported that KDE 4.9 beta is coming out soon.
+
+* Groupdav calendar bug in kdepim-runtime
+Discussed whether to stabilize kdepim-runtime base version or -r2, which has a
+possible fix for https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=415401 but no
+positive feedback. Agreed to go with -r2.
+
+* creffett away
+creffett will be out for a month on a trip with little internet access.
