Would it really take us 1 year? The way I see it, there are 3 steps to doing 
this properly -

1. Port all the CMakeLists and get everything to compile with Qt 5 and KF5
2. Port away from KDE4Support
3. Get the repositories ready for splitting.

(1) has already been done. If one wants, we could stop development on master / 
4.13 right now and just continue on the frameworks branch. The next release 
can be on top of frameworks after June.

In the meantime people can keep working on (2) and (3), but they are not 
blocking anything.
