From the lack of feedback on this request I get that everyone is really busy with real life. Well I would like that we commit ourselves to release 4.6 as soon as possible. For that I have updated the release schedule proposal (I've removed one beta from the list since I don't consider it necessary) [1]. I know that some things from the planned feature set will not make it into this release but since we stopped maintaining the stable branch it is important that we release 4.6 with the current feature set. I will work on bugfixes throughout this cycle so we can obtain the stability I would desire from other KDE applications in KMyMoney. Thomas, would this schedule be OK for you (since you'll have to make the actual releases)? We would also need someone to create the 'What's new page', Jack already announced that he will review the documentation. I can take care of the SVN log between 4.5.3 and 4.6. Please don't consider this as rushing things, I would just like everyone out there to migrate to the new version since a lot of bugs have been fixed and I have some free time to commit to this goal. We've come a long way since KDE 3 :).
