Hi all,

There isn't any blog about Frameworks on Planet Qt... Anybody here who can 
(help) fix that? If you want content - it isn't hard to argue why Frameworks 
is hugely important, feel free to take some stuff from this Linux.com article 
and my blog:
http://www.linux.com/news/software/applications/755768-kde-frameworks-5-a-big-deal-for-free-software
 http://blog.jospoortvliet.com/2014/01/kde-frameworks-5-big-deal.html

And this 'about Frameworks' text, as well as the announcement itself of 
course:
http://dot.kde.org/2013/09/25/frameworks-5

Find more links in my blog today.

A neath 'about text' you could use is:
The  KDE Frameworks represent an effort to rework the powerful KDE Platform  
libraries into a set of independent, cross platform modules that will be  
readily available to all Qt developers to simplify, accelerate and  reduce 
the cost of Qt development. The individual Frameworks are  cross-platform and 
well documented and tested and their usage will be  familiar to Qt 
developers, following the style and standards set by the  Qt Project. 
Frameworks are developed under the proven KDE governance  model with a 
predictable release schedule, a clear and vendor neutral contributor process, 
open governance and flexible licensing (LGPL).

The Frameworks have a clear dependency structure, divided into Categories and 
Tiers. The Categories refer to runtime dependencies. 
<strong>Functional</strong> elements have no runtime dependencies. 
<strong>Integration</strong> designates code that may require runtime 
dependencies for integration depending on what the OS or platform offers. 
<strong>Solutions</strong> have mandatory runtime dependencies. The Tiers 
refer to compile-time  dependencies on other Frameworks. Tier 3 Frameworks 
can depend on other  Tier 3 Frameworks as well as Tier 2 and Tier 1. Tier 2 
Frameworks can  depend only on Tier 1 and Tier 1 Frameworks have no 
dependencies within  Frameworks. There are over 50 different Frameworks, find 
an overview <a href="http://api.kde.org/frameworks-api/frameworks5-apidocs/">in the \
online API documentation</a>


Suggestions and ideas always welcome :D
