Over at KDE.news, Jos Poortvliet has a look[1] at where KDE is today and
where it is going in the future. It is part one of a "mini series". This
piece looks at the community, Plasma, Frameworks, design, and applications,
while the next will cover governance and how the community has been changing.
"Experiences in the world of mobile and web applications have shown that
users are far more likely to start using features and appreciate small
batches instead of large dumps. Short release cycles can bring bug fixes and
improvements to our users much faster. On the other hand, most users of KDE
software access their software and updates through the downstream
distributions which are on slower release cycles even though they have
repositories for updated software. [Therefore] this is a discussion which
needs to include the distributions as much as the upstream developers."
