This mean bringing forward some kde release dates and postponing some openSUSE pre-releases to make everything fit tightly:
Following that schedule means that openSUSE 42.2 would be released including 5.8.1.
In my opinion one important point is being overlooked. We have a LTS version for Plasma, but as far as I know we do not have LTS versions for Frameworks nor Applications. So we should first discuss and align the maintenance strategy before even discussing the version of these components. Would it be possible to update the Frameworks, Plasma and Application components in Leap 42.2 through the normal maintenance channels (like we have been doing a couple of times for Leap 42.1), or is the maintenance for 42.2 now restricted to pure bugfixes and versions of packages should be kept at the same level as the release ?? Without the above it would be hard to determine how to proceed. If we can update the KDE components to newer versions, then we do not have to push and squeeze ourselves to get a particular version in. If the maintenance channel would be closed for functonality and/or version upgrades, then we need to decide on which version for Frameworks, Plasma and Applications we want to have in Leap 42.2 given the release schedule. This would also mean that a lot of work might come towards a very small team as that fixes in newer releases need to be backported against the older version, which sometimes might not even be possible.
