naming the next major release

[David Edmundson]

My thoughts below.

- Dropping the term "workspace":
Seems sensible to me. It even seems this was the original intention [0].

- Calling it version 2.
This makes a lot of sense, having a software compilation of KDE Plasma 5.x
and KDE Applications 5.y, where x and y are different would be very very
confusing.

One thing that wasn't clear to me on the original proposals and has just
been mentioned by Giorgos is the prefix "KDE".

KDE is not just "the community" but also "an umbrella brand for the
technology created by the KDE community" [0].
I have heard other people make comments about how "Plasma is trying to
distance itself from the KDE community". I don't agree with those people,
but we shouldn't fuel that fire. Displaying that it is part of the KDE
umbrella is IMHO important.
