</div>Well, until Jaroslaw changed it very recently,<br>
<a href="http://community.kde.org/index.php?title=Calligra&action=historysubmit&diff=16611&oldid=16017" target="_blank">http://community.kde.org/index.php?title=Calligra&action=historysubmit&diff=16611&oldid=16017</a><br>
said nothing about further 2.x releases. ;-)<br>
<br>
Anyhow, Calligra (and KOffice before) isn't really the most successful project to keep<br>
roadmaps and schedules. I don't believe in a 4 months cycle before I see it. ;-)<br>
That said with 2.4 pushed to January, maybe February, even when keeping the release cycle,<br>
2.6 would be released in September/October which is already months after the KF5 release<br>
in July/August.<br>
<br>
The recent thread started by Boudewijn about Qt3Support removal sounded a lot like Qt5<br>
support is coming earlier rather than later with only Kexi being in question. (I suggested<br>
porting the Qt3Support parts required by Kexi to Qt5 but didn't get a reply.)<br>
<br>
Frankly: No way I believe you telling me about a Qt4-based Calligra 3.0 release in<br>
January/February *2013*, roughly a year after Qt4 was EOLed.<br>
Maybe at some point that was agreed on that schedule but didn't know about the Qt5 roadmap<br>
then.<br>
<br>
Boudewijn's thread (with replies also by Cyrille) is definitely the more recent<br>
information. And as Cyrille wrote there: When depending on Qt4, you have to do the<br>
maintenance work for it, too. Somehow I don't think anybody is interested in that...<br>
<br>
Well, my document doesn't need to be finished now. If a clear roadmap for 2012 hasn't been<br>
decided until a few days before the 2.4 release, the outlook part can also be removed.<br>
It's nice to have but non-vital.<br></blockquote><div><br>Even if KF 5 is released in summer 2012, it won't be in major distributions before october.<br><br>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.<br>
