+dilfridge is the new KDE team leader with the majority of votes.

+
+3. Dropping RPATH from installed binaries
+Add a RPATH entry for every library dir that is not in the system library
+directories in ld.conf are not automatically considered as system library
+dirs, but only some static list of dirs.
+Everyone agreed on RPATH removal. We will introduce a patch with KDE SC 4.8.2
+to remove the RPATH and move it to the main tree.
+
+4. Bugs
+* Remove hard dep on media-libs/phonon from kde-base/kdelibs
+https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=356681
+https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=388041
+Upstream says "technically you can replace phonon with qt-phonon, but that's
+just stupid because you lose functionality". Another argument against it, is
+that qt-phonon will be removed with qt5. We wont fix the bug and keep phonon as
+hard dep. johu will take care of the bug after meeting summary is available.
+
+* Eclass problem with handbook without LINGUAS.
+https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=372457
+The handbook eclass code is pretty confusing for all in meeting present
+members. It was written by reavertm. We decided that we will mail reveartm to
+fix handbook eclass code, because he has the most knowledge in it. dilfridge
+will take care of contacting him, it's his first lead task.
+
+* Revise the change "semantic-desktop? -> semantic-desktop=".
+https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396491
+Some packages rely on semantic-desktop capabilities in other ones. tampakrap
+is volunteers to take care of the bug.
+
+5. Open floor
+* KDE 4.8 stabilization
+KWin does not build anymore without opengl support. kde-base/kmail-4.8.1
+crashes, but upstream patch can be backported. KDE SC 4.8.1 has tons of
+bugfixes, compared to to 4.8.0. The majority votes for KDE 4.8.1 as stable
+candidate. johu will prepare stabilization.
+
+* Test failures
+creffett brought up dbus-related test failures. johu recommended to get
+virtual-dbus eclass running. dilfridge suggested if one or two test fails
+or restrict. The problems with virtual-dbus is that you can't run bash
+commands in it's environment. creffett will be responsible for this.
+
+* New members
+Welcome to three new members of the project: creffett, kensington and
+dastergon. They are in the process to become gentoo developer and mentored by
+tampakrap. creffett and kensington have already open 'new developer' bug.
+dastergon doesn't have an open bug yet.
+
+* Comeback
+scarabeus re-joined KDE herd. Welcome back!!!
+
+* Reduced work time
+mschiff mentioned that he will not have much time for the KDE herd due to
+real life priorities, he will be back in may. tampakrap will spent most of his
+time for gentoo infra team.
