Why we will continue to work on KDE/4.14 when we focus on kf5 ?

(As you know the number of dev kdepim are 1 or 2 or max 4 and I don't have 
time to maintain kde4.14 and port all kdepim kf5...)

Ok we (perhaps me) forgot to send a message to release-team, but I didn't hide 
it ? I wrote a lot of blog about it, we decided it on april in sprint kdepim 
in toulouse  and we wrote an email in mailing list.
Ok we forgot to send email to you.

Akonadi is as the others kdepim package it's the last one.
Ok Dan could you told us which is the last package please ?

Prison... I never used it it's optional so it's not a problem.
