Thinking about it again, I don't think it would actually be necessary to make 24.12 a short release. I could easily handle 24.12.1-24.12.3 and 6.2.90-6.3.3 simultaneously. It's not like any big changes will make it into 24.12 at this point. Spectacle 6.3 will probably get more love than 24.12 though, mostly because it can actually synchronize with KWin and KPipeWire.
So what do I actually have the power to do? It's not clear who has authority, whether or not consensus is needed or how consensus is reached. Do I really only need to contact Albert, Jonathan and distributi...@kde.org to change the release schedule? > It's not a sysadmin task, it's a release team task, remind Albert to remove > it from the kde gear list at the appropriate time then remind me to add it to > the Plasma list. What determines the appropriate time? If we keep the full release cycle, do I just ask you to add Spectacle to Plasma before 2024-12-26 (Plasma freeze) and ask Albert to remove Spectacle from Gear after 2025-03-06 (24.12.3)? > The sysadmin task would be to move it from the graphics invent category to > the plasma invent category so you can ask for that to happen any time. Is it actually necessary to change categories on Invent? There are other projects on the Plasma release schedule that are not in the Plasma category.
