Hi everyone, the first release of KDE Frameworks was version 5.0, released on 7th of July, 2014 [0], [1]. Since then, the KDE Frameworks libraries were released every month as scheduled on time [2], growing from initially ~60 libraries to over 70 well maintained libraries.
Soon, KDE Frameworks will turn 5 years old with its 5.60th release, likely happening in July 2019 (will be the 61th release). Is there anyone who wants to prepare a .dot story and maybe even get in contact with the Qt marketing to celebrate this a bit? What comes to my mind: - KDE Frameworks is a set of well-maintained crossplatform C++ libraries that extend Qt - KDE Frameworks libraries can often be used standalone without any (or only a few) dependencies, such as KArchive or KSyntaxHighlighting - KDE Frameworks are well-tested [3] and documented [4] - Transparent licensing - KSyntaxHighlighting is used in Qt Creator [5] What I wrote here is obviously not yet a nice dot story :-) Any takers?
