Hopefully, Baloo will become a framework with 5.9. If I'm not allowed to
cause it will break Dolphin, then I'll have to wait till KF 5.12 because it
will continue being part of Plasma and packagers will complain if Baloo is
shipped with both frameworks and Plasma at the same time.

 Here's the dates for 5.4 keeping to our current practice of 3 month
 schedule.

 5.3 beta in two week's time, 5.3 end of next month, 5.3.1 a month later,
 5.3.2 a month later, 5.4 beta two weeks after that and 5.4 final end of
 july.

 This puts 5.4 beta when I'm away on holiday and 5.4 final during akademy.
 maybe we should delay those a week for that?


Right now, tagging is just before Akademy, release is during.

During that period packagers are super busy, so it sucks for it to be
during Akademy.

However, the week before tagging is when the developers are ridiculously
busy. After taggging, it's actually kinda quiet (unless things are going
wrong)

If shift by one week, that puts our difficult week in the middle of
Akademy, which is way worse for us devs.

IMHO, we either need to shift by two weeks, or not at all.


 Are there any issues with the release cycle in general?

Plasma 5.4 release is on - 2015-07-23
Applications 15.08 will probably be on - 2015-08-04

Baloo will break compatibility between Qt4 and Qt5 releases at that point.
Therefore, Dolphin (Qt4) searching will no longer work. I'm not willing to
wait till Frameworks 5.9 + .6 = 5.15

Maybe we want to do something about this.
