Can I suggest Plasma people attend the frameworks meeting tomorrow
afternoon. Then we can use that meeting to at least get up to speed
with the Qt6 ports and some idea of timelines.

We can't have two active LTSs, it'd be a backporting nightmare and at
best it would be a lie to claim we're actively supporting both.
An LTS now effectively means we can't start

Not so much optimal, but the only possible option that would work for
22.04 LTS

I personally think
as said in the meeting notes, there is a request from Opensuse and Kubuntu to
do a new Plasma LTS release.
Optimal for them would be 5.24, but a potential problem is that is a quite
feature heavy release, so it may be too buggy for an lts.
Opinions? ideas? do we go with 5.24? 5.25? or not lts

* Picking up a question from Jonathan Esk-Riddell : how do dev's feel about
making 5.24 an LTS release? There's interest from Kubuntu and Opensuse
(potentially)
[ahiemstra] didn't we conclude last time it didn't really make sense to do an
lts until the last plasma 5 release?
