Huh, why not? Different visible dockers, different snippets in Kate, different activated plugins, different active Akonadi-ressources (not sure, if that is supported in the config-files) etc. For each profile it shoud be possible to configure which config-files to share and which config-files to recreate/clone, because you may want to share bookmarks but use different plugins etc. That would be nicer than -- config and KDEHOME. And all that stuff could be handled by KConfig etc., they would keep some preferences and they would use the normal config-file, create a new one, copy the old one or use a different one according to the preferences, maybe it could even ask the user, because it cannot know about all used config-files before startup (but that would probably involve binary incompatibility). -- http://the-user.org/

This won't change anytime soon i fear, so you better look at something else. Giulio
Kephal status
Hi, I would like to know the status of the kephal lib. It seems to be in a state where it cannot be used outside of the kde-workspace package. I have already provided some patches in bug #266685 (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=266685) but those don't really fix the problem as they only make sure that some header files are installed. It seems that the lib is missing some part of the classes.

Yes this does happen. But it doesn't happen with all the students and it also happens outside of GSoC. Overall GSoC as a program and the students and mentors taking part in it have made a great contribution to KDE. Let's not forget that. And they will continue to do so. Last year alone we've had 46,5 successfully completed projects plus 8 on top of that for Season of KDE. There is no other program I know achieving anything similar. As a community our retention rate is very good when looking at all orgs taking part especially when taking into account that we're the largest org. Let's be thankful for what the students do and give them the necessary incentive to stay even when no longer paid by Google. TO a large extend that is in our hands.

Re: [GSOC?] Porting KDELibs to Android
I can't speak for the others but IMO the GSOC program introduced an unhealthy attitude into FOSS: Get into a FOSS project solely for the money, patch something up in pre-alpha quality that's not yet good enough to be merged into the main tree, and leave after the money is collected. While I'd like to see an Android port, it would be of no use if the GSOC student disappears after the payment and no longer maintains it...

Minor Point Relase Policy
Hi, the release-team has written a minor point release policy for KDE main modules. You can find it at http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/Minor_Point_Release_Policy As far as we know it covers what we already do, just makes it a bit more official and standarized. Albert
