Review of featured applications

[Rick Spencer]

If a KDE app works great on Ubuntu and meets the goals and guidelines
laid out, then it is fine to include. However, for Lucid, "Featured"
will focus on Ubuntu, and not Kubuntu or other *buntus. We should
discuss at UDS if there is some way to extend the notion to Kubuntu,
Edubuntu, etc...

Cheers, Rick
