Just a heads up, I'm testing this currently, but will take a while to build a new rawhide livecd (unless someone know a way to do it on Fedora architecture?). The favourites menu in F22 Jam is just the default KDE, as the location of the file has changed. Some of the .desktop files have also moved. I think this has also hit the KDE SIG for the live install favourites shortcut, though once they change it our kickstart should still be compatible.

I've left in some of the default favourites this time around (kfmclient, Kontact, ktpcontactlist). There is also a separate new systemsettings app alongside the old one (now under kde4). I haven't really tried the new one yet, but I think we should leave that favourite as it is (now pointing to the new one) rather than changing to point to the old one.
I'm happy to help contribute with testing/suggestions patches (once I get accepted into the packagers group) I have a laptop I can install this on. Maybe you can point me to where to get this when we get to that point. Also I'm trying to wrangle an artist to update our background so we'll have something music themed to match the Fedora release. She recently did some work for new OpenShot branding, so I'm hopeful we can get something quick from her.

Sounds cool. With reference to my fix for the favourites thing, doesn't quite work as I missed out the need to create this new location. Still failing to build the livecd on a F19 box, which doesn't seem related and probably just the regular annoyance of not being able to build new release on older ones. Will have a go at build in VM later (bit of a watching paint dry exercise). Once we get this fix in (think that may need Brendan's help) the nightly spin builds should be okay to test. Actually, unless you really want to see if the favourites menu works then the nightly spin is working already. A few KDE bugs I think, but it is alpha.

I've discovered Beta TC3 downloads are handily available for all spins through links at:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_22_Beta_TC3_Desktop?rd=Te...
Will be trying this one on real hardware.

Okay, works fine with this additional change applied, both on the Live system and installed. KDE live CD have also added back putting the installer into Favourites for the liveuser and our kickstart still works with that too. We might want to strike konqueror out of the favourites list, at the moment it's a little long (you have to scroll in favourites, not a good thing) and Firefox is already there (I just copied the default KDE favourites onto the end of ours, it includes konqueror and wasn't readily apparent from the name of the desktop file, kfmclient_html.desktop).
The wallpaper seems to be the F22 default, similarly themeing looks to be default. Could look at changing that, but the Jam wallpaper hasn't been updated in a while (sounds good that Brian Monroe is looking into art, not sure if there's time to introduce an update to the Jam wallpaper package for F22, obviously web site things can be updated regardless). Oxygen seemed a little dark in F21, haven't tried switching to it in F22 yet.

Thanks, I think KDE SIG added it back too, so we didn't get breakage, but good to have belt and braces if we depend on it.
