4.10 dependency freeze in two weeks!
Copying from the 4.10 Release Schedule page
Thursday, November 1, 2012:
From this moment on it is not allowed to add new dependencies or bump dependencies versions. It is possible to get an exception for this. Post the patch to reviewboard and add the release-team as reviewer. We will check if the dependency is needed and is available on all platforms.
In other words: If you have a feature that requires a new dependency or a version of a dependency that is higher than currently checked for in the build system, you need to have committed this change before this date.

Active port of Okular merged
Marco just merged the Active port of Okular to the master in the okular repository. Now people that have the proper dependencies will also get an active-documentviewer binary that is a touch optimized experience based in the Okular core libraries.
You can find a video of an old version of it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvLVqiFC6_4

ktouchpadenabler 0.1.1 released
What is ktouchpadenabler?
ktouchpadenabler is a kded daemon that listens to the XF86XK_TouchpadToggle/XF86XK_TouchpadOn/XF86XK_TouchpadOff key presses and toggles/enables/disables your touchpad accordingly.What's the difference against 0.1.0?
The only difference is updated translations, the code is exactly the same. Thanks to the translation teams for their work :-)You can find it at http://download.kde.org/stable/extragear/ktouchpadenabler-0.1.1.tar.bz2.

4.10 Soft Feature Freeze in 13 days!
Remember the 4.10 Soft Feature Freeze is in 13 days so try to get your features ready for merging as soon as possible. If you add your features to the Feature Plan you get two weeks more until Hard Feature Freeze, and if you don't need those two weeks you should add them anyway since it really helps other teams like promo, Q/A, etc. to have the features listed in one place.

Okular user forum
I've never been a fan of forums, but it seems our users like them so we've created the Okular subforum inside the awesome KDE Community Forums.
It shows that moving existing topics to the okular forum we already have 61 of them .D
Of course bugzilla is still the place for bugs and wishes and the mailing list is still the place for development, but if you have other user questions, don't hesitate to share them in the forums!

Okular tiled rendering manual
Mailson Lira has written a nice webpage explaining how his tiled rendering work for Okular works.
This is still not merged for 4.10 but we hope to get it ready by then.
And of course thanks to Google for his Google Summer of Code program that allowed Mailson to work on this project.
