I'm considering trying OpeSuse, is (/when it will be) Plasma 5 default(?)-Desktop?
Speaking as part of the community KDE team, on the matter of Plasma 5 as default (as opposed to 4.x), some observations on that regard: - First, we (where "we" means mostly me, Raymond, and Hrvoje) are evaluating P5: it is likely that Plasma 5.3 (out in a couple of months) will possibly be a good candidate. - Secondly, the trend towards "graceful integration" of kdelibs 4.x and KF5 based apps is continuing, so nowadays is mostly no problem to have a mixed setup (it is expected to be like this for at least a year more) - Dates on the 13.2+1 schedule (so we can see how we can handle upstream release cycles), once they are established, would also help with planning. OTOH, to make this a reality even after all the "preflight checks" are in place, requires help from everyone from the community, especially with regards to openQA, which will likely require a good deal of tests redone. Plus some bits from openSUSE may need porting (personally I'm toying with the idea of doing the KDE greeter on first boot using Qt5's QtQuick). I'm hoping to have a more firm plan out at a later point in time. -- Luca Beltrame - KDE Forums team KDE Science supporter GPG key ID: 6E1A4E79 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
