KDE 4.13 RC Applications and Platform Released

I'll bet you that tomorrow Honton will have a new account. Maybe Bo$$2 or something like that? :-(

I know, but at least it is a sign from the reasonable discussing community here. The ban is our last and only weapon. There will be more in the future.
Whats nice: it clears the board from all his stupidities of the past.

And finally - Honton and every single post of him (even the infamous "Gnome kills KDE" Thread) got removed. Phoronix get's usable, again. Thx alot!

Indeed.
Hopefully the next B0$$ / Honton / name-that-troll will be banned before he/she/it becomes such a nuisance.

Per the discussion at hand, seems that 4.13 rc will land in Fedora-KDE unstable soon. Given previous track record (since more or less 4.5rc) I don't expect many issues.

AFAIK the only major regression is linking files with activities (Nepomuk can, Baloo can't).

Interesting and good to know.

Yes, Baloo does not have exact feature parity with the current Nepomuk implementation, but the developers state it has about 80% of what Nepomuk can do and covers most of the primary use cases of Nepomuk with the possibility that the rest will be added in later. I don't see that as a feature getting "killed". If it was killed it would be KDE completely removing semantic desktop searching from KDE. That isn't the case.

As far as I am aware, no user-facing features were removed. Some API capabilities were removed, but no applications made use of them, and there was no indication they ever would. A few applications that used nepomuk for certain things have not been ported yet, but nepomuk is still available for those.
