All this can happen semi-automatic if the version number is just set the right 
way in CMakeLists.txt, no?

I spent the last couple of hours to update the version lists on https://
utils.kde.org. There are several programs that use the same version number for 
quite a while.

Maintainers, please show some activity by raising your version numbers 
regularly. If I see no activity regarding version numbers in an application 
for 3 releases I will switch them to KDE Applications versions. Basically all 
of the above will be switched before the RC (if I don't forget it) if there is 
no activity in this regard as the 3 releases have already passed.
