</div>Same intention here. Didn't want to do invasive changes as long as we keep<br>
merging back changes from master.<br>

</div>Do we really need that? 4.7/1.7 *is* legacy and we should just try stabilizing<br>
that one, not yet another branch.<br>

</div>Personally I'm not to fond of another 4.8. We should just focus on KF5 now for<br>
feature development and focus on 4.7/1.7 for stabilizing. I'd consider this<br>
the last KDE4 release. Otherwise we'll have to merge back changes which causes<br>
additional work-load (And we still could not do invasive changes to the<br>
frameworks branch, which is required to get rid off kdelibs4support and<br>
friends).<br>
<br>
Regarding GSoC: I think it depends on the GSoC project.<br>
<br>
For both Denis and me it probably makes sense to base our work directly on<br>
KF5. Personally, I think both projects would fit into a shiny KF5 release<br>
announcement. So people also have a good reason to adopt the KF5 version of<br>
KDevelop early.<br>
<br>
Sergey's work is already part of 4.7/1.7, hence he should continue working on<br>
these branches.<br>
<br>
Makes sense?<br>
