That's excellent. Where can I get the -sru sources? I was (in my spare time -- ha) going to apply and build the latest 3.5.13 on Arch with all the latest libs and gcc 4.7.1. Thinking through it, libpng15 and gcc47 changes should be the only changes required. If you can give me a link to the -sru sources, that would be great and cut down on the tinkering I have to do.
Slavek,
If you provide a link to 3.5.13.1 tarballs, I'll build packages here and test (Slackware).
I believe a set of 3.5.13.1 tarballs is best because then everybody who tests is building from the same source set, rather than trying to patch 3.5.13 sources with patches. If we release 3.5.13.1 as a community then we need to all build from the exact same sources.
We probably should have a punch list of what to test. Nothing extravagant but we need to know which specific bugs have been patched and what kind of test proves functionality. For example, if the kaffeine screen saver patch was backported, then we would need to test that the screen saver is controlled correctly by kaffeine.

David, Darrell,
I am glad for your interest. I will be very glad if you test compilation on your distributions. I was hoping we could then coordinate the SRU release, including packages for various distributions. Source packages are not yet available as a tarballs, but current state are available in the GIT as a branch named v3.5.13-sru - see for example:
http://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/tdebase/?h=origin/v3.5.13-sru
There are several packages on which I currently work to "cherry-picking" patches, which I consider as necessary == inadvert tqt changes and gcc 4.7 fixes:
[ ] tdebindings [= ] tdesvn [= ] tde-style-qtcurve [ ] rosegarden [ ] tqscintilla [ ] python-tqt [ ] python-trinity [ ] libqt-perl
Then I must go also through the tde-packaging...
It would be good to incorporate potential other necessary patches before the official release 3.5.13.1. I know that now I have to incorporate several new patches - for example fixes for PNG images. To them I get soon...
By the way: BasKet I liked. But I miss the possibility to copy the selected notes to the clipboard directly as text - not as links to files.
