I think the most important thing that we learned from the KDE 4 porting it's that you better start late with the porting. That means that I wouldn't start porting before KDE SC 5.0 is released. Otherwise it just wasting time following a moving target. I think for now it's more important to work towards becoming completely ready, than jumping into another port.
