Hello everyone, This is the minutes of the Week 28 KF5 meeting. As usual it has been held on #kde-devel at 4pm Paris time.
Were present: agateau, apol, d_ed, dfaure, fregl, mgraesslin, notmart, PovAddict, Riddell, sandsmark, tosky, unormal, vHanda and myself. Announcements: * KF 5.0 got officially released yesterday! * As announced this meeting is more forward looking than reporting, especially useful would be: features you want to see appear, and areas for improvements you see; * It will be our last regular meeting for the time being, we can move to flow base without trying to set a strict deadline now (as release and development is mostly decoupled); * agateau would like to see the ColumnResizer class get out of review limbo (probably didn't have enough energy to get it in Qt, would happily push it to kwidgetsaddons); * apol would like us to figure out how we expect people to develop on apps with KF5; * we need to ensure the tooling is there and that it's easy to get started; * he's also like to see the android port progress, in particular he got no answer about getting a file in ECM to that effect; * d_ed has two models he wants to get into kf5 at some point (one similar to KCategoryModel, allowing a row in two categories, the other one merges two list models together); * also he'd like the framework integration to be cleaned up and to sync itself with breeze's settings; * dfaure plans to complete the startup notification in kdbusservice; * he also plans to replace sycoca; * he also wants to figure out what to do with libkonq; * fregl wants to see more focus on a11y; * he notes it will require being able to operate plasma based code with the keyboard; * mgraesslin would like windows and macos support effective in KWindowSystem; * he plans wayland support in kwindowsystem too; * he'd also like the runtime component of kglobalaccel back in the framework itself; * notmart would welcome a git hook to make sure all commits are reviewed; * he's not sold on the no branches policy, actually plasma-framework seeing heavy work he pushed feature branches already (said policy isn't written anywhere BTW); * for the upcoming versions he wants the runtime part of plasma-framework to converge as much as possible the plasma components and the qt controls; * there's interest to move Package out of plasma-framework, a solution should be devised; * PovAddict is working on a single-app installer for windows: http://i.imgur.com/zokLHVe.png ; * he'd like our documentation to improve, we're really behind alternatives in that regard; * Riddell would like kauth/polkit fixed; * he'd like the kwallet migrator done ASAP; * he'd also like kdesudo next to kdesu; * finally, he pointed out that the schedule was missing the string freezes; * sandsmark wants to get to grammar checking in sonnet; * he's also like to get auto-correct in sonnet; * tosky would like to see more tests; * he'd also want more work on some of the i18n components; * unormal is looking forward to more mac CI results; * the windows CI is a bit stuck; * he'd like to see progress on the android CI; * he'd like to see a donation button in KDE apps based on KF5 (developers could opt-out); * he's thinking we should ask third party developers if they want to send us some information when they use a framework to create an app; * vHanda would like kfilemetadata to make it into a framework; * he'd also like to turn baloo into a framework; * finally he'd like gestures in kglobalaccel; * ervin hopes to see kdepimlibs bits getting in sooner rather than later; * also he would like our developer story to be clearer, tooling needs to be improved for our different targets (especially third parties); * finally he thinks we need to strengthen our CI system and tests to raise the bar on quality.
