Yes. With 2.6 targeted around that time I'd make perfect sense to switch to Qt5 then. > I think the most important thing that we learned from the KDE 4 porting I don't know how many times that needs to be repeated but KF5 isn't going to be a huge rewrite. It's still just mostly 4.x without deprecated stuff and more modular compilation options. KDE 2->3 was similar. > it's that you better start late with the porting. As someone who was also involved with K3b, I can say to you that it was extremely depressing. Not only was K3b 1.x not integrating at all into Plasma Desktop, it dragged lots of dependencies with it. At some point distributions rather shipped barely tested, alpha quality svn checkouts just because they were 4.x-compatible. KDevelop also lost many users to QtCreator because QtC managed to ship a Qt4 version earlier than KDevelop did. > That means that I > wouldn't start porting before KDE SC 5.0 is released.

Anyhow... as I already wrote, I've changed the paragraph in the press kit to no longer contain KF5 specifics. While I think that a 2012 roadmap should be finalized for the 2.4 release, specifics are out of scope for the press kit anyway.
