For things in the workspace, I guess we'll just want<br>
"<releaseinfo>&kde-plasma-workspaces; 2.0</releaseinfo>" or so? Easy<br>
enough.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>We decided to drop "Workspaces" from the name, it's too techy for no real gain. Also decided to drop "KDE" from the name as people still confuse the names and call it just "KDE 4.12.1". The new name for what would logically be "KDE Workspaces 5" is just "Plasma" + release date, so "Plasma 2014.06" will be the upcoming first release.</div>

Will the "KDE Software Compilation" still be a thing in the KF5 era,<br>
complete with its own versioned releases? If that's the case, we'll<br>
probably just want to change "KDE" to "KDE SC" in the <releaseinfo><br>
for frameworks-based apps and call it a day.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Not in its current form afaik. There will be three big "modules" - Frameworks, Plasma and Applications.

<div><br></div><div>We'd like to put heavy accent on *not* using KDE anymore in around the workspace releases, so no more KDE Plasma, but just "Plasma", possibly with "by KDE" touch.

If we're instead going to release all applications on their own<br>
schedules, we'll instead probably just want to drop any mention of a<br>
KDE version in applications' documentation. (Or add "on KDE<br>
Frameworks 5" or something like that?)<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I'm not sure what's the plan for apps. Their "4" versions will just work with Plasma and we expect to actually ship the first Plasma with applications based on kdelibs (please correct me if I'm wrong).</div>

I'm also going to submit a review request shortly adding entities for<br>
all this new nomenclature so we can refer to it consistently in<br>
documentation in KF5-based applications. People interested in this<br>
sort of thing please double-check it for accuracy..<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Cool, make sure you add kdeframeworks group as reviewers.</div></div><div><br></div><div>Cheers</div>-- <br><div><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)">Martin Klapetek | KDE Developer</span></div>
