Hi :-)

Well according  to 

http://developer.kde.org/development-versions/kde-2.2-release-plan.html

HEAD will be feature-frozen on June 11.
This date has been known for long and I know several people who have been 
working towards this date. 
I think it makes no sense to have a release-plan if we start to prepone 
things.
Therefore I would "interprete" Waldo's mail of today that nobody should 
_start_ to work on new features today. But on the other side it's ok to 
_finish_ existing ones, if you can make sure that they will be finished by 
Monday.

Yes, an improved sidebar in the style qwertz requested would be a remarkable 
feature and probably the only obvious change to Konqueror's GUI which would 
be reported about in a review. So PR-wise this would be quite important.
Also the sidebar has already been "announced" on 
dot.kde.org/KDE-Kernel-Traffic (at least quite some people get the impression 
that it is already finished in KDE-CVS). So I guess it's ok to work on this 
one if it works flawlessly on Monday :-)

Also the KPersonalizer-people have been working towards finishing 
KPersonalizer on Sunday/Monday. This is another must-have-feature for KDE 2.2.

Greetings,
Tackat
