Nothing will be prevented if the Plasma maintainers actually opt for "August<br>
2014 Update of the May 2014 release of Plasma by KDE".<br>

</div>Just yesterday I saw this blog post by our own KDE guys at Fedora and I quote:<br>
<br>
"If you install kde5-workspace package, you can also have a sneak peek at what<br>
Plasma guys are doing for Plasma 2! Your display manager should have “KDE<br>
Plasma Workspace 2” entry in session types list, which will log you into<br>
Plasma 2 session."<br>
<a href="http://www.progdan.cz/2014/01/kde-frameworks-5-and-plasma-2-on-fedora/" target="_blank">http://www.progdan.cz/2014/01/kde-frameworks-5-and-plasma-2-on-fedora/</a><br>
<br>
KDE5 Workspace, Plasma Worspace 2, and Plasma 2 all mixed in a single<br>
paragraph. Oh, and no word about these things just being tentative names.<br>
<br>
Apparently our own guys are confused by the whole situation and that's even<br>
before any public announcement of throwing even more confusing date-based<br>
version numbers into the mix.<br>
<br>
The media, btw, also reads Planet KDE. Therefore any "informal developer<br>
slang" is adopted by them as well.<br>
"August 2014 Update of the May 2014 release of Plasma by KDE" is NOT sane<br>
marketing.<br>
<br>
Oh, and btw: The plasma2 package has the version number 4.90.1 over there at<br>
Fedora. Plasma 2 version 4.90.1 ... so unconfusing and by no means a road to<br>
"KDE5"...<br>
