Hello framework maintainers,

As you know we're getting near the final release. If we don't hit a critical 
issue, we'll release the final early June. Before that, we'll have a second 
beta on May 4th, and we'd like it to look as close to the final as possible.

That's why I'm sending you this email. Please take time in the coming week to 
look at your frameworks and do that last bit of spring cleaning. I propose you 
the following checklist (you can add more steps if you feel like, but I 
consider that the minimal checklist):
 * Have you reviewed the metainfo.yaml file of your frameworks to make sure 
the information it contains is accurate and up to date?
 * Have you checked that your frameworks followed all the steps in the 
creation guidelines? (especially bugzilla component, reviewboard, etc.)
   http://community.kde.org/Frameworks/CreationGuidelines
 * Have you checked that your frameworks are compliant to the policies in 
place?
   http://community.kde.org/Frameworks/Policies
 * Have you done the necessary for your frameworks to be green on the CI?
   http://build.kde.org/view/Frameworks/
 * Have you done a last pass of review of your APIs for source compatible 
improvements?

Please get back to us when you're done checking your framework, if you get any 
issue or if something is unclear.

For information, here is the list of maintainers and the frameworks they 
maintain. You'll also find the list of frameworks with no maintainers at the 
end of the list. It would be nice to see more people step up to maintain 
frameworks, or give a hand applying the checklist above to frameworks without 
maintainers.
