I would like to see applications starting to use KF5 more and more. I agree
it can be a special case, but the 3 oldest projects I maintain (KDevelop
which is not in SC, KAlgebra and Kamoso) are mostly ready for action.

On the other hand, I don't see a reason for waiting more to adopt Qt5 on
our projects.

As the release schedule for our KDE applications in the version 4.14 [1] were<br>

So what do you think? And most important, what do you, the KDE apps<br>
developers, think? Do you plan to develop new features with Qt4 and the KDE<br>
Platform 4 or do you plan to port your application to the KDE Frameworks 5 as<br>
soon as they have a stable release (like this June ;-).<br>
