This page is used by the KDE4 Release Team to keep track of the current state of the KDE4 release process.
Moving / Removing Applications
Here is a quick checklist for moving or removing an application:
Documentation
Documentation for each application is kept in the doc/ folder in the top level of the module. Be sure to move or remove the associated documentation when you move or remove an application.
i18n
When moving or removing applications from a module, be sure to move or remove the relevant pot files for the application in the /trunk/l10n-kde4/templates/messages
and /trunk/l10n-kde4/templates/docmessages folders. Then make sure you add entries to /trunk/l10n-kde4/scripts/process_orphans.txt that note what was done.
There is no need to checkout everything from l10n-kde4, just the templates and scripts folders.
Build System
Remember to edit all the relevant CMakeLists.txt files in both the origin and destination modules when moving an application.
