This is the most important part but rest is also worth reading:
The Status
The application menu bar has been hidden and its QActions are showed in a QMenu that popups when the user clicks the application title bar. The Quit action has been moved to the right menu position.
The input method has been integrated, the IM popups when the keyboard is closed and a keywidget receives the focus. It also supports the sticky and the lock mode for the shift and Fn keys. The Compose key (”Ch” on the keyboard) works fine, so basically the on-screen and the hardware keyboard are pretty usable.
The GTKStyle has been integrated in the source tree and it is used as default style. The other styles have been disabled in order to have a more slim library and this allows to save space on the device.
The Qt package and its dependencies have been updated to diablo and they are available in the Qt4 repository.
A lot of little stuff has been completed, such as the right QToolbar position and the QMessageBox size calculated with the available area dictated by the WM……
Consequences:

All apps built on Qt4 (including KDE4) will have menu integrated into Hildon interface - no more wasting those hard to hit menubar.
Of course input methods. No more messing with xkbd & co.
