Hi, The KDE 4.2 soft feature freeze has been pushed back to Sep 29th, [http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2\_Release\_Schedule](http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2_Release_Schedule) Which means that before that date we must have edited the feature plan, [http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2\_Feature\_Plan](http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2_Feature_Plan) The hard feature freeze will be Oct 27th. Is it still the plan reach API+ABI stability in libavogadro by the end of this year, and to make KDE 4.2 depend on it, removing its local copy? Anybody up for this todo item? Of course Marcus already did the bulk of the work in KDE 4.1. Cheers, Benoit ---

Hi, the release-team just reverted to the original schedule, which gives us a bit more time: [http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2\_Release\_Schedule](http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2_Release_Schedule) Cheers, Benoit On Monday 08 September 2008 14:31:01 Benoît Jacob wrote: > Hi, > > The KDE 4.2 soft feature freeze has been pushed back to Sep 29th, > [Schedules/KDE4/4.2 Release Schedule - KDE TechBase](http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2_Release_Schedule) > > Which means that before that date we must have edited the feature plan, > [Schedules/KDE4/4.2 Feature Plan - KDE TechBase](http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2_Feature_Plan) > > The hard feature freeze will be Oct 27th. > > Is it still the plan reach API+ABI stability in libavogadro by the end of > this year, and to make KDE 4.2 depend on it, removing its local copy? > Anybody up for this todo item?

Certainly update the snapshot and do any porting necessary. Some changes are necessary before the API can freeze and I am trying to make the time to get them in. I will see what I can do. ---

If not I will move that item to 4.3 in the plan. Carsten ---

I would like to get that in if I can find the time, so can we leave it on there for now? ---

We can keep everything in, even not-yet-started, until the hard feature freeze. Cheers, Benoit Quoting “Marcus D.
