KF6 meeting notes 2022-02-22

[Volker Krause]

Should we retire the QMake support for KF6?
- plan is to drop after branching, unless somebody steps up to maintain this

https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/plasma-framework/-/merge_requests/452
- needs feedback, the approach discussed two weeks ago wasn't entirely 
applicable due to QXcbWindow not being accessible

Android/Qt6 CI
- waits for https://invent.kde.org/libraries/phonon/-/merge_requests/5 to be 
reviewed

plasma-integration port
- if somebody wants to have fun with D-Bus menu API that no longer exists ;)
- possibly related: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/52

https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kwidgetsaddons/-/merge_requests/95
- move to widgetaddons is conceptually not ideal, but matches the current 
practical usages, which are all in widget-based consumers
- Kirigami as a tier1 frameworks couldn't use it anyway even if it was in 
KGuiAddons
- Plasma 6 would probably need a QML API for this, replacing the current data 
engine
- alternative: leave this in gui addons but move the password edits to a yet 
to be defined tier2 framework
- possible approach: rename kcompletion to kinputwidgets to widen its scope so 
we can move the password widgets there
- only actionable once we branch
- we can accept the MR and add a task to clean this up in KF6, but we won't 
need to export the class, we can keep it as an implementation detail

Plasma 6 sprint
- Mar 5-6, attend!

- Android matches our current .desktop based model relatively well
- next steps: research how this works on Windows/macOS, ie. does our existing 
data model/query API work for those too?
- might be entirely independent of KF6
