schestowitz[TR2]> Aug 14 05:59
schestowitz[TR2]> It looks like the count could go all night due to the very big ballot Aug 14 05:59
schestowitz[TR2]> papers.  Normally they split the ballot papers into piles for each Aug 14 05:59
schestowitz[TR2]> candidate in a single step.  In this election, they are using two steps. Aug 14 05:59
schestowitz[TR2]>   First they split the papers into four piles and then each of those Aug 14 05:59
schestowitz[TR2]> piles is split into 7 or 8 piles.  Therefore, it will take at least Aug 14 05:59
schestowitz[TR2]> twice as long as counting normal ballot papers.Aug 14 05:59

schestowitz[TR2]                                                <p>As a consolation prize for canceling the Plasma LTS product, we decided at the time to add an additional bug-fix release to the normal Plasma schedule, effectively lengthening the support period for each non-LTS Plasma version by 2 months — from 4 months to 6. </p>Aug 14 20:39
schestowitz[TR2]                                                <p> And as a result, there have been no Plasma 6 LTS versions. </p>Aug 14 20:39
schestowitz[TR2]                                                <p> …Until now! </p>Aug 14 20:39
schestowitz[TR2]                                                <p> Plasma 6.6 is now an LTS version. And not just Plasma 6.6 itself, but also a specific version of KDE Frameworks: 6.24, which will also receive backported bug-fixes. And Gear 25.12, too! </p>Aug 14 20:39
