Hi,
The KDE Software Compilation 4.4.0 and related updates are now queued and
should hit updates-testing in the next push.
See:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/kpilot
(This works because kpilot has been split out to a separate package as it is
no longer part of kdepim in 4.4, it was previously part of kdepim, so the
only updates including a separate kpilot package are the F11 and F12
versions of this update set.)
Details:
This update group updates:
* the KDE Software Compilation (KDE SC) to 4.4.0
Major new technologies have been introduced, including social networking and
online collaboration features, a new netbook-oriented interface and
infrastructural innovations such as the KAuth authentication framework.
According to KDE's bug-tracking system, 7293 bugs have been fixed and 1433
new feature requests were implemented.

In addition, several packages were rebuilt for KDE SC 4.4, Qt 4.6 and/or SIP
4.10, and the Compiz KDE 4 window decorator was fixed to work properly with
the default Oxygen window decoration.
The kdemultimedia package includes a preview of the new KMix PulseAudio
integration:

http://colin.guthr.ie/2010/01/mix-it-some-more/
which is disabled by default. It can be enabled by commenting out the
contents of the /etc/profile.d/kmix_pulseaudio_disable.sh and
/etc/profile.d/kmix_pulseaudio_disable.csh files. This feature will be
enabled by default in Fedora 13.
Bugs Fixed:
519299 - Oxygen theme doesn't render in compiz with kde 4.3
557530 - Ghost applications in task manager
