How about leaving the website as it is for now? I don't know where you
checked, but 2.9 is the latest version specified, the screenshots have

been changed because there were no UI changes done between versions. So
if
it bothers you it says 2.7 instead of 2.9, change that?
As for the kf5 port: it is mostly done, and several distros already
ship an
unofficial release, we simply don't have a finished version, but we
certainly should do a tech preview alpha just to get things rolling
faster
again.
Currently we are faced with the big problem of MySQL embedded having
been
deprecated upstream, and we need to make a substantial change for the
database, which is currently been decided upon.
Where is that discussion taking place, if I may ask?
So instead of removing the website which I strongly oppose, how about a
static page mentioning the latest 2.9 release with screenshot numbering
updated, and a link to kft5 master in git? Also worth mentioning would
be
the rolling release distros who already ship the kf5 version.
FWIW, arch linux dropped amarok to AUR (unsupported) with the comment
that upstream looks basically dead and the qt5 version was never
properly finished.
So the communication could certainly do with an improvement.
