Global Dependency and Release Freeze

[Ben Cooksley]

Hi all,

Due to a snowball of various dependency bumps and other tickets which
have been submitted over the past few days, i'm imposing a global
dependency freeze upon all KDE projects.

In addition to this, due to the workload these also create, I am also
imposing a total release freeze on all Extragear projects. Requests
for tarballs to be released will not be actioned while the freeze is
imposed. It would be appreciated if people could please hold off on
filing those.

Sysadmin needs time to catch up and get the CI system back into a
settled state following changes to Windows and FreeBSD images, in
addition to sorting out the other tickets we have received over the
past few days some of which will require some time to deal with.

Requests for exceptions to these freezes are not available, however we
will endeavour to lift them as soon as is practicable.

Regards,
Ben Cooksley
KDE Sysadmin

The Dependency Build failed due to other breakage as part of FreeBSD
upgrades which have recently been done.
I've asked the FreeBSD KDE folks to take a look.

OneTimePass-Plasma

[James Augustus Zuccon]

Hi all,

I've been working on a Google Authenticator-like Application for Plasma
(QML/C++). It also comes with a KRunner that can be triggered with "otp
searchterm".

It uses KWallet to store passwords and liboath to generate the token (so a
message is displayed if the KWallet Subsystem is disabled).

So far, I think the build is relatively stable, but would someone be
willing to view the code and suggest improvements where I've failed to
follow KDE conventions?

There are quite a few additions I would like to make to this (QR Scanner)
and quite a few other applications I'd like to work on for KDE in
anticipation of Plasma Mobile.

Thank you.

Cool idea! I hope some of the experienced devs can check it out. :)

Hi James,

For those not familiar wit hGoogle Authenticator, what does your application 
do, what problem does it solve for the user? From your description and the 
github page, I have no idea...

Cheers,

Hi Seb,

Google Authenticator is a Two-Factor-Authentication (TFA) program. It is
similar to RSA's SecurID tokens in the way that it works.

Hope that clarifies. Will update the README.md when I get some time later
today.

Cheers!
