F10 will ship with 4.1.2 or 4.1.3, not 4.2. There's simply no way we can
ship 4.2 in F10 when it's not even in alpha yet, its alpha release is
scheduled for the day of the final development freeze and the beta release
for the day of the F10 release. We just cannot ship F10 with an alpha KDE
(even a beta 1 would be bad, and there's no way we can rush that in anyway,
even getting the tarballs early as packagers, because Fedora releases are
cut some time before the official release date).
Ok, but I guess that it would eventually become available and get pulled in
with the updates? Or will it appear not before F11?
We're testing a backport of panel autohiding though. See the
kdebase-workspace-4.1.2-5.fc10 package for F10 and the
kdebase-workspace-4.1.2-5.fc9 package for F9 (note that you need the 4.1.2
stuff from updates-testing to test that build). I can't promise yet that
the feature will stay (we're still gathering feedback - if it's too broken,
we'll have to revert it and wait for 4.2), but if it works out fine, it'll
likely end up both released with F10 and pushed to the F9 updates.
That's good news! Hope it will work out ok! :-)
Best, :-)
