Approach for port to KF5

[Eshton Robateau]

Looks great so far. I think Andrew has the admin rights to the website and reviewboard so he should be able to handle that.
Also remember to CC bangarang at kde.org so message goes to mailing list.

This seems reasonable to me. Maybe I will think about the architecture
and do a little graph/chart for us to agree on.

Online in the review board. We should change that the review EMail
doesn't get send to the old googlegroups mailing list, but to the new
one instead.
You will find only a minimal main.cpp for now,probably with outdated
KAboutData, just needed something to test the new CMake build stuff.

Also, we need to update the project site, since the "post-review" tool
is obsolete and replaced by "rbt post", but I don't think I have
privilege to do so.
