=== Purpose ===
This page contains the release schedule for previous and future versions of [https://kde.org/plasma-desktop/ KDEs Plasma 5].


The schedule may be subject to change for several reasons:
This page contains the release schedule for all released versions of [https://kde.org/plasma-desktop/ KDEs Plasma 5].  
* if the quality of a major component is not deemed good enough
* if the release of the required KDE Frameworks version is delayed
* if the required Qt version is delayed
* important bugfixes or security issues
 
All deadlines are due '''midday''' UTC, but if you need a few more hours, notify someone from the release team.
 
The schedule is also available at:
* [https://phabricator.kde.org/calendar/ Calendar on Phabricator]
* [https://calendar.google.com/calendar?cid=MDMxZ2tncWcxaGpmOGxjbWowZW0xZDJzajhAZ3JvdXAuY2FsZW5kYXIuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbQ Google Calendar]
 
Release mangler: Jonathan Esk-Riddell
 
=== Current plans ===
Releases of new versions are planned every 4 months (3 times a year). See ''Future releases'' for more details. "Normal" releases will stop receiving bugfixes as soon as the following release is available. The exception to this rule are LTS releases:
 
=== LTS releases ===
The current LTS release is '''Plasma 5.24'''.
 
The 5.24 LTS release will receive bugfix updates until we start Plasma 6 development (timetable unsure). Around that time, the final Plasma 5 release will be made. That last Plasma 5 release will be version 5.27 an will be an LTS release, too.
 
== Stages of releases ==
=== Repo and Soft Feature Freeze ===
On the Thursday two weeks before beta is repo and soft feature freeze. List of git repositories fixed and major features merged.
 
=== Beta version ===
Plasma currently only ships one Beta before every release.
 
The Beta of every release series of Plasma is tagged and released on Thursday following the corresponding [[Schedules/Frameworks|KDE Frameworks]] release (which is usually released on the second saturday of a month). The Repo freeze is 2 weeks before that.
 
=== Beta Test Day ===
One week after beta release we'll try a beta test day where we encourage everyone to install and test the beta.
 
=== Final version ===
The first version of Plasma (.0) of every release series is tagged three weeks after the Beta (also on Thursday) and released on the following Tuesday.
 
=== Bugfix versions ===
Bugfix tags/releases are made on Tuesdays in a Fibonacci sequence of weeks (1, 1, 2, 3, 5) after each previous release of the same series:
