This kind of coordination is something we do all the time. :) Considering the type and the amount of work that will have to be done in libplasma the only close example imho is the entire Frameworks5 thing, and libplasma2 is included in it anyway.
So no, this is not something we do all the time. > I'd really like to avoid some kind of consumer view onto Plasma.

Well, just speaking for myself, plasma2 at the moment is NOT my responsability, mines are: solid, libsolid, BlueDevil, RandR, Kamoso, and Frameworks5 (though I haven't done anything yet), libplasma2 is not one of them. That doesn't mean that I won't work on libplasma2 and QML effort porting for the greater good, but they are not my responsability just right now, they will be int he future (I guess). Anyway, all this rambling is precisely what we want to avoid by not talking technical stuff in the Vision sprint, and I don't see the hurry on talking about technical stuff just yet because stuff will be done, work will be done, and libplasma will be moved forward that is for sure since we want to keep compatibility with the current stuff, just this sprint is not the place or the time to discuss it. I have heard normart saying "What I want to do is a core plasma sprint to make libplasma2 happen", what about doing that instead ? _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
