HI openSUSE KDE user.
At this moment the KDE:Current repository is almost finished building the latest KDE SC 4.14.0 release and the expectation is that the repositories will be published very soon. It could take still some time before the KDE:Extra repository catches up.
With a look to the future, KDE Upstream has decided that 4.14 will be the last KDE 4 Applications release and that after that they would switch (at least for a while) to application releases where applications are either kdelibs4 based or KF5 based.
The naming for these Application releases would be KDE Applications $YEAR.$MONTH and the next one planned would be KDE Applications 14.12 and it is unknown which applications will be switching to KF5 for that particular release.
For KDE:Current users, this would mean that the repository will remain kdelibs4 based and that we will just update those applications that are still kdelibs4 based. Other packages will remain on their respective latest versions. In practice this will also mean that packages will deviate in their version number (similar to what is already the situation with kdebase4-workspace).
What the situation will be for KDE:Distro:Factory and openSUSE:Factory itself is not yet clear, but I would imagine that we would still remain with a default kdelibs4 based desktop and trying to ship as many kf5 applications as possible for those that want to switch.
The version shipped in KDE:Current will be revisited as soon as all KDE applications are KF5 based. In all honesty I would like to avoid a setup where we would have a KDE3, KDE4 and KF5 repository.

Raymond A lot of new users do not know that KDE4 and KDE5 should not be installed and run on the same partition.
i.e. running KDE4 series and then running KDE5 or Plasma Next. - -- Cheers! Roman - -------------------------------------------- openSUSE -- Get it! Discover it!
