- QML++
Desktop
- Activities advancements
- Panels associated with activities
- Add an activities button to the default panel arrangement
- Drag taskbar entries on activity manager icons to assign?
- System tray:
- tasks widget integration for the "application" tasks, out of the tray by default
- xembed tasks hidden in the popup by default
- property extended from the standard: what plasmoid can represent this task, use it for keyboard layout
- grouping of network icons in a single one (with icons+lionmail in the popup?)
- multimedia category? (grouped, + nowplaying in the popup?)
Mobile
Use activities, use it as "guinea pig" for qml plasmoids, device profiles for Package etc
Netbook/Tablet
the shell itself for tablet makes more sense to be the mobile one.. merge mobile and netbook shells?
Classroom
- Containment for "lesson plans"
- Network (web?) service that pushes lesson plans
- Monitor app
KDE Applications
- Activity awareness
- first release of selkie? first prototype of qml plasmoids shipping in selkie packages

- always show that window in the present windows effect
- Switch from kickoff to ?
Classroom
Classroom profiles for netbook/tablet/mobile
KDE applications
- Identifying common places where applications could use qml/plasma widgets in their main ui. example: dock widgets?
- Selkie release, to experiment with the point above has plasmoids as full applications, the html view becomes a "fallback"
