How about if we group all the current frameworks projects into a kdelibs category?
Eventually we'd have a category for plasma, kdepim, etc.
the git urls wouldn't change, only the logical grouping would in the projects database.
so at the https://projects.kde.org/projects/frameworks level we would have kdelibs, kdepim, plasma, etc, etc
essentially I'm advocating we re-create the concept of modules under the frameworks component.
in order to reduce clutter and group projects logically
