14th February 2015. KDE today announces the release of KDE Frameworks 5.7.0.

KDE Frameworks are 60 addon libraries to Qt which provide a wide variety of 
commonly needed functionality in mature, peer reviewed and well tested 
libraries with friendly licensing terms. For an introduction see the 
Frameworks 5.0 release announcement.

General

  A number of fixes for compiling with the upcoming Qt 5.5

KActivities

  Fixed starting and stopping activities
  Fixed activity preview showing wrong wallpaper occasionally

KArchive

  Create temporary files in the temp dir rather than in the current directory

KAuth

  Fixed generation of KAuth DBus helper service files

KCMUtils

  Fixed assert when dbus paths contain a '.'

KCodecs

  Added support for CP949 to KCharsets

KConfig

  kconf_update no longer processes *.upd file from KDE SC 4. Add "Version=5" to top \
of the upd file for updates that should be applied to Qt5/KF5 applications  Fixed \
KCoreConfigSkeleton when toggling a value with saves in between  Fixed using \
KSharedConfig in global object destructor

KConfigWidgets

  KRecentFilesAction: fixed menu entry order (so it matches the kdelibs4 order)

KCoreAddons

  KAboutData: Call addHelpOption and addVersionOption automatically, for convenience \
and consistency  KAboutData: Bring back "Please use http://bugs.kde.org to report \
bugs." when no other email/url is set  KAutoSaveFile: allStaleFiles() now works as \
expected for local files, fixed staleFiles() too  KRandomSequence now uses int's \
internally and exposes int-api for 64-bit unambiguity  Mimetype definitions: \
*.qmltypes and *.qmlproject files also have the text/x-qml mime type  KShell: make \
quoteArgs quote urls with QChar::isSpace(), unusual space characters were not handled \
properly  KSharedDataCache: fix creation of directory containing the cache (porting \
bug)

KDBusAddons

  Added helper method KDEDModule::moduleForMessage for writing more kded-like \
daemons, such as kiod

KDeclarative

  Added a plotter component
  Added overload method for Formats::formatDuration taking int
  New properties paintedWidth and paintedHeight added to QPixmapItem and QImageItem
  Fixed painting QImageItem and QPixmapItem

Kded

  Add support for loading kded modules with JSON metadata

KGlobalAccel

  Now includes the runtime component, making this a tier3 framework

embedded systems

KIO

  Fixed crash in jobs when linking to KIOWidgets but only using a QCoreApplication
  Fixed editing web shortcuts
  Added option KIOCORE_ONLY, to compile only KIOCore and its helper programs, but not \
KIOWidgets or KIOFileWidgets, thus reducing greatly the necessary dependencies  Added \
class KFileCopyToMenu, which adds Copy To / Move To" to popupmenus  SSL-enabled \
protocols: added support for TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 protocols, remove SSLv3  Fixed \
negotiatedSslVersion and negotiatedSslVersionName to return the actual negotiated \
protocol  Apply the entered URL to the view when clicking the button that switches \
the URL navigator back to breadcrumb mode  Fixed two progress bars/dialogs appearing \
for copy/move jobs  KIO now uses its own daemon, kiod, for out-of-process services \
previously running in kded, in order to reduce dependencies; currently only replaces \
kssld  Fixed "Could not write to <path>" error when kioexec is triggered
  Fixed "QFileInfo::absolutePath: Constructed with empty filename" warnings when \
using KFilePlacesModel

KItemModels

  Fixed KRecursiveFilterProxyModel for Qt 5.5.0+, due to QSortFilterProxyModel now \
using the roles parameter to the dataChanged signal

  Always reload xml data from remote urls
