Back from vacation :)
KWin:
Was investigating why Aurorae window decoration doesn't play
nicely with nested KWin. EffectQuickScene changes GL context and then
when KWin wants to continue and calls GL stuff libepoxy falls on its
face.
Plasma:
Found the new language and locale KCM doesn't for packagekit-qt5
availability properly, I filed
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=456305
Other:
JPEG thumbnailer now extracts preview image from Exif metadata, if
available, significantly speeding up thumbnail generation
For the 12 MP image sin my pictures folder the average
thumbnail generation time went from 80–120ms down to as little as
3–5ms
[Discussion on CMake 3.22 bump and the need of checks if ubuntu, due
to differentces on how tanslations are packaged]

hence my interest in
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/2312
Fusan
* Add option to give a visible option to configure Qt scaling for
Plasma on X11 after one of the most annoying multiscreen bugs has been
fixed: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kscreen/-/merge_requests/107 and
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/1890
* In the future it can be default enabled, if most people are using
PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING and can endure those known bugs nowadays.
Vlad
* Debugged a visual glitch in the slide effect on X11. Submitted a
patch to fix it, but Dave wants to put another fix on top of it
* Refactored idle detection on wayland so it's less error prone
* Fixed missing desktop background in the slide animation after
changing system settings
* Lots of other kwin related chore
* Implemented the desktop cube effect using qtquick 3d, I would like
to keep it as a third party effect and close relevant bug reports in
bko, any thoughts?
* Got sick, I need a couple of days to recover so the symptoms don't
interfere with the work too much
[Discussion on where the desktop cube should live, probably kdeplasma-addons]
Asturm
* systemsettings-5.24.6 will depend on KF-5.91 unless something changes
[Discussion: revert and keep the bug or ask distros if is ok to bump?]
Marco

https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/2560

** configuration ui is usable
** still needs figuring out how to wire up editing tiles when tiled
