Alpha 2 Cancelled, Message freeze in 10 days time
I'm cancelling Alpha 2, due tomorrow, as I can't see any way to release it without a KDE Frameworks release. That makes our next deadline in 10 days time, the message freeze on Thusday 1st May followed by a beta the following Tuesday. We can discuss at the meeting tomorrow how realistic it is to have a message freeze now but I'd certainly be keen to keep the beta release on schedule.

Only if distros could package it and if it is co-installable. Since it requires a more recent version of KF5 it's not at all easy for distros to package it, and I suspect there's still plenty of bits that aren't co-installablle. I'm working on the ubuntu release this week so not able to confirm all this but will get to it after Thursday.

Speaking as another person with a distro hat: at least in openSUSE we offered direct-from-master snapshots. The landscape changes too fast (at least until the beta, from what I can see) to offer stuff that's likely outdated a few minutes after it's out. -- Luca Beltrame - KDE Forums team KDE Science supporter GPG key ID: 6E1A4E79 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel

Alpha 2
Alpha 2 is scheduled for a week today but as I understand it much of what was kde-runtime is now in KF5. So a new KF5 release will be needed which is not due until May 1st. Talking to KF5's Kevin he doesn't want a sudden new KF5 release and I doubt it's possible to give a load of patches with it. Should we cancel Alpha 2 and wait for Beta on May 6th?
