--- Comment #2 from groot at kde.org ---
Could be assigned to kde@ as well.

The area51 repository is where KDE ports are prepared for inclusion into
FreeBSD ports proper. You can find some minimal documentation at
https://freebsd.kde.org/area51.php . There are ports of Plasma 5.8 LTS; and
packages; but not from the official ports and packages repositories, because
it's slow going getting all the ports in, KDE 4 shuffled around, Qt updated,
etc. Current work-items are:
 - Qt 5.8.2 update
 - minor KDE & Qt updates / small fixes
 - takeover of extra-cmake-modules
 - KDE Frameworks 5

Beyond getting the frameworks in, things are a little more open. Plasma 5 alone
could be added without clashing with any other ports -- it is all new software.
Dealing with applications is another thing, though, and requires a great deal
of shuffling and writing of MOVING-entries.
