To be honest, we wouldn't want to repeat the KDE 4.1 migration. That was considerably underplaned, undertested, undereverythinged. So IMO if the workspace doesn't have a stable (as in actually stable, not just labeled stable) release sometime in June there really is no way we'd get away from KDE 4 for 14.10. A PPA to opt into possible pre-releases etc. certainly is the plan, but beyond that I would be very supicious of the speed at which things are being moved :P 15.04 is right now a very likely candidate for adoption (again, assuming the quality is right and we have a proper migration plan for everything). Something that also should not be forgotten, is that for at least 2 releases we will likely end up shipping qt5+qt4+kdeframeworks5+kdelibs4, and considering how hard it is to keep us below 1GiB ISOs right now this certainly is something that should be taken care of well before we start a migration. I put down a trello card for 14.10 to work out at least an initial migration plan.
