+      <p>The KDE on &os; team focuses on packaging and making sure that the
+	experience of KDE and Qt on &os; is as good as possible.</p>
+
+      <p>As mentioned last quarter, Alonso Schaich (alonso@) became a
+	committer and since then has made good progress helping his mentors
+	Raphael Kubo da Costa (rakuco@) and Max Brazhnikov (makc@) maintain all
+	Qt and KDE-related ports.</p>
+
+      <p>This quarter, Qt 5.3 was finally committed to the ports tree
+	after extensive work that included cleaning up and/or changing a lot of
+	the Qt5 ports infrastructure to make it both easier to maintain the Qt
+	ports as well as finally make it possible to build newer versions when
+	older ones are already installed on the system.</p>
+
+      <p>We have also updated KDE in our experimental area51 repository
+	and committed several updates to other ports such as KDevelop and KDE
+	Telepathy. Overall, we have worked on the following releases:
+	<ul>
+	  <li>CMake 3.1.0 (in area51, exp-run in progress for it to be committed to the ports tree)</li>
+	  <li>Calligra 2.8.6 (in area51)</li>
+	  <li>KDE 4.14.2 (committed to ports), 4.14.3 (in area51)</li>
+	  <li>KDE Telepathy 0.8.0 (committed to ports)</li>
+	  <li>KDevelop 4.7.0 (committed to ports)</li>
+	  <li>Qt 5.3.2 (committed to ports)</li>
+	</ul>
+      </p>
+
+      <p>Tobias Berner has contributed patches to update QtCreator to 3.3.0 as
+	well as KDE Frameworks 5 ports which are under review for inclusion
+	in our experimental area51 repository.</p>
