Yes, Werner Koch the GpgME / GnuPG maintainer agreed that we should make 
gpgmepp the official C++ bindings for GpgME and maintain them as part of gpgme. 
(which is stated in the gpgme++ repo as the long term plan anyway).
The plan is to move the code in gpgme, get a release out that installs gpgme++ 
under a slightly different name or version and after that take out gpgme++ from 
the KDE releases / retire the repo.

We won't get there before 15.12 though, probably start of 2016.

Regards,
Andre
