Good morning Here is the summary with the extracted and condensed opinions: - Aleix: KF5 based apps asap - Inge: 4.15 and asap KF5, no LTS, Parley for 4.15 - CoLa: 4.14 as LTS, beneath KF5port, individual decision of the app developer when to switch - Christoph: 4.14 LTS (flexibel with strings e.g. Baloo, gradually port to Qt5 (QtQuick1, kdelibs4support, etc.) - Roney: agrees with CoLa about individual decision and mentions the GSoC about porting KDE Games to KF5 - Albert: agress with Cola as well and wants to leave the decisions with the groups to port in an interval between 0 and 12 month -- KDE Applications 2014.12 (Qt4/KDE Platform 4 and KF5 based apps): app developers decide when they want to port, limit where we accepts KDE Platform 4 based apps (Kevin: +1) -- No SC in KF5-land! (different schedules), -- Coordinated KDE Applications releases?!? All discussions about this apps/KF5 are interconnected - tosky: GSoC features?, ask each apps maintainer about features for 4.14 and further? - Frank: prefers coordinated apps releases, release is much work (=> thus automation), no large break between 4 and 5 based apps
My conclusion of this is: - 4.14 is LTS with a relaxed string and feature freeze (though ask before you do) like KDE 3.5.10 (or what it was). - Towards the end of 2014 we can start to release KDE applications based on KDE Platform 4 and based on KF5 together and decide then next year how we do KF5based application releases in the future and which modules and Co. - Definitely end Qt4/Platform 4 based releases in August 2015 (when Plasma LTS ends) from the KDE side Please speak up if you don't like this/want this otherwise I'll write an email with these conclusions at the end of next week. And as the "Proposal One: KDE (Core) Apps and Suites" thread on kde-community is interconnected to the above I attempt a summary of it in the next hours.
