Thanks for bringing the thread to the kde list.
Concretely, I see 2 low-hanging fruit to seriously consider:
* drop kde telepathy stuff from the spin. It's largely deprecated and
unmaintained (almost got dropped from kde-apps at prior maintainer's
request). No replacement (we have kopete, but it's still kde4-based, so
meh).
Should we be dropping basic 'it mostly works' functionality in favor of "You
can't use IM in the live image"? I would think telepathy is waaaay down on the
priority list of being slimmed down - being that there is no replacement as
yet.
* drop one of the extra non-default browsers (*): qupzilla (soon to be
renamed), konqueror. of that list, konqueror is likely the least useful to
most users.
I agree with one exception, we should ship only a single browser for the live
image. Anything more can be added after installation if the user wants - but
for the sake of slimlining, pick one and keep only that one.
