Is that in time or space?
They simply have different time-based release schedules. Frameworks have a 1 month release schedule, Plasma 5 has a 3 month release schedule. They're not necessarily sequential (although work is done to prevent overlaps).
Is this illustrated (as in time-chart) somewhere rather than words-words-words?

Plasma 5 had to release past the first version of KF5 simply because, obviously, it depended on it.
Diagram of dependencies for those of us for whom all this is not "obvious", please.
I don't see how this is important to poor users... to me sounds 'important'* only for developers. What was the the point of the original mail, is to try and clarify what are upstream intentions in (close) future, and how the openSUSE KDE team plans to act according to these. In short - we'll try to make available applications based on Qt5 and KDE Frameworks 5, but we won't rush, and will use common sense in 'migrating'.
IOW, to try and making it possible that end user won't even know does he uses filemanager based on Qt4/kdelibs4 or Qt5/KF5.

Thank you very much for taking the time to supply that.
As for us "POOR USERS". well it always help to understand what's under the hood. At the very least it make our reports of bugs and problem more coherent if we have some clue as to the what&where&wherefore of it all. As in: you really don't want bug reports that say "Its broken please fix it" and leave it at that. There more you can help us, the more we can help you :-)
Just out of curiosity, how much is K5 drifting in the direction of being usable with Wayland without the need for Xorg? Slooowly moving there, but lots of work to be done.
Cheers, Hrvoje
