KF6 meeting notes 2022-01-25

[Volker Krause]

https://phabricator.kde.org/T15127#269860 (build status):
- limited progress, Kirigami is the main blocker now
- should we ifdef out the blocking shader stuff to unblock dependent modules?
-> yes

https://phabricator.kde.org/T15232 (unit test status):
- good progress, only 9 regressions compared to KF5 remaining
- kwayland lost its unit tests due to the removal of the server part, how do 
we solve that?
- kwayland will be phased out in favor of Qt Wayland client API, so that's not 
really a concern

Baloo
- is this Plasma only and can be moved to Plasma or is it needed as a 
Framework still?
- Elisa might be using it as a Framework

https://phabricator.kde.org/T12135
- probably a Plasma-only thing for now
- could also be done as part of plasma-integration?
- seems mainly needed as a workaround for Linux/Nvidia issues

https://phabricator.kde.org/T12232#268214
- what can we do in 5 for easing the transition for this?
- seems mainly used in Konqueror and very few other places
- "static bool test(const QEvent *event, const char *name);" should be 
deprecated now

https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kcoreaddons/-/merge_requests/176
- needs review

https://phabricator.kde.org/T14294
- move to meta tasks, split out actionable tasks

https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kfilemetadata/-/merge_requests/48/
- needs a decision on the Q_DECLARE_PRIVATE removal
- std::unique_ptr usage is undisputed and can go in

https://phabricator.kde.org/T12137
- probably mainly a Plasma-specific thing, but also used by Latte Dock and 
KRunner
- could be moved to a Plasma library
- could be copied now to enable transition now

https://phabricator.kde.org/T12138
- multiple engines are discouraged and mainly historic in Plasma
- still in use for different styling in configuration dialogs when using QQC1
- goal for Plasma 6 is to migrate to a single engine, not possible for Plasma 
5 due to compatibilty
