Would there be objections if JuK was ported straight to KF5, losing functionality if necessary (as in, screw the features, we want a clean KF5-based implementation first), upon which we can re-add the features that are most demanded later? People did complain that during the transition from KDE3 to Plasma 4, a lot of functionality was lost, but eventually it all came back, and today we have a much cleaner codebase while Plasma itself a lot more moddable, for lack of a better term. Another thing is, do we really want to port to Phonon 5, or can we port to QtMultimedia? I'm not sure of the pros/cons of either, so I'm just asking. -- Boudhayan Gupta _______________________________________________ Amarok-devel mailing list Amarok-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/amarok-devel
