Re: Frameworks master is Qt6 now

Maintenance of KF5 continues in the "kf5" branch. Those using kdesrc-build make sure your kdesrc-builrc contains "branch-group kf5-qt5", then it will switch to the correct branch automatically. Those building manually please adjust your workflow accordingly. Any merge requests for frameworks should target Qt6/master (unless they are not applicable there). If the change should be backported to KF5 cherry-pick it to the kf5 branch after merging. Note that for the time being the kf5 branch has to stay compatible with Qt6. This is required to keep the currently existing Qt6 builds working. This does *not* mean that master is now open for any kind of breaking change. We will announce more on this soon. Assuming no major issues with our tooling crop up soon we will proceed with the following changes: - Bump the KF_VERSION in master to 5.240.0. At some point we will release one or more beta versions, which will have 5.250.0 etc as version number. This is to follow the practice of .80/.90 version numbers, but slightly adjusted to account for 255 being the technical upper limit. - Drop build system code to build with Qt5 - Rename library/target names to KF6 - Drop deprecated API. To ensure compatibility with existing Qt6 builds this will initially be done only for API that was deprecated before 5.100 since that is what the current Qt6 CI enforces. Eventually we of course want to drop everything deprecated, but that requires porting consumers of it first. I expect this to happen over the next few days. I will announce once this is done and master is open for more invasive changes. Hi, as an update to this: We are currently progressing nicely with this, but are not done yet. Some amount of instability/breakage is expected, so *I do not recommend* to try and use frameworks master until things have settled down a bit. Doing so prematurely would only cause extra work for everyone involved. I will announce once things have settled enough to start working on more things. Hi, the items mentioned are now done. We are now mostly in the process of ironing out some edges and wrapping up some loose ends. There's a list of "TODO after branching" tasks in https://phabricator.kde.org/tag/kf6/ as well as a lot of "TODO KF6" comments all across our codebase. Help with going through them and addressing them is appreciated. master is open for regular development as well as breaking changes. Cheers Nico

Re: discourse testing
Good morning! Since my last email we've made various improvements as suggestions came in. If we forgot to action something please give @sitter or @carl a ping. We've now also enabled site-local registration as well as login using google, facebook, and github. Please give this a good testing if you intend to use one of those options. So far the reception was quite favorable, so we intend to conclude testing soon. This is your last call to tell us what you think of the new forum and what we maybe should be fixing still. As ever, feel free to use the forum to tell us :) There's also the not so trivial matter of how to migrate from one forum to the other and I'd greatly appreciate your input: https://discuss.kde.org/t/transition-from-old-forum/148 HS
