(which was a bit too early given that the release schedules were still coupled together, and it was more confusing). With a totally separated release schedule it make sense to have different names.

It's not "Dolphin for Plasma", it's an application that can be used everywhere. Maybe "Dolphin by KDE", but I would avoid to go to the totally opposite direction: KDE Dolphin is fine, in the "commercial" world there are products like Ubuntu OpenStack, SUSE Cloud, Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform just to name a few. > If we're instead going to release all applications on their own > schedules, we'll instead probably just want to drop any mention of a > KDE version in applications' documentation.

As the first new Plasma is going to ship quite close to KF5, no many applications will be available I guess :) Ciao -- Luigi _______________________________________________ Kde-frameworks-devel mailing list Kde-frameworks-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-frameworks-devel
