Hi,

for those libs/apps which are not released as part of "KF5", "Plasma" or 
"Applications", but with own release management/cycle, where would general KDE 
products interested packagers expect the announcements to be done?

I see two mailinglists which might be the proper place, but from the existing 
announcements done on these lists I am not sure which one should be the one. 
release-team seems "KF5", "Plasma" or "Applications" only, but that might be 
only because other release managers are too shy to post there?

So, where should Krita, KDevelop, Kexi, Calligra, Digikam & Co. do their 
release announcements to packagers, so they can start to do packaging in time 
for the release day?

Compare also the official mailinglist descriptions:

"About Kde-distro-packagers
This list is used to coordinate issues amongst and between KDE developers and 
distribution packagers. This is a public list."
https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-distro-packagers

"About release-team
This mailing list is a contact point and a discussion list for people involved 
in or who are interested in helping with coordinating and creating KDE source 
releases."

Cheers
