I think the work on KDE is mostly ready, though Alonso and Max should
know better than me. I'd just like to make sure we still need the
nepomuk ports before asking for an exp-run and updating (and maybe
trying to fix whatever's broken that requires people to pkg delete
certain ports before updating).

On the Qt side, updating to 5.3 has been a big PITA mostly because I
want to fix #194088/QTBUG-40825 (installed Qt headers and libraries are
used instead of the ones being built when building a newer Qt) and also
adapt to a change to the qtbase configure script that will be in 5.4
(-process, -dont-process and -fully-process were removed). I _think_ I
finally got to a point where these things have been taken care of, and
I'm going through all Qt ports fixing plists and refreshing patches.
Since I mostly do it during evenings in my free time, I don't have a
firm ETA, though :-(
