My vote was for Plasma 5 for 15.04, because:

 *We do not have the people to support both Plasma 4 & 5 packaging and CI.

 *We are supporting the LTS for 5 years.

 *It is mostly ready for general use.

It is fine to complain here, or ask for help here, but also file bugs,
please. Filing bugs is one of the most important ways to contribute
both in Kubuntu (packaging bugs on Launchpad, via `ubuntu-bug
packagename` in the konsole) and in KDE (http://bugs.kde.org).

The developers can't read all the lists, so complaining here doesn't
help get things fixed. Filing bugs is important for software
improvement.

We can always use more folks in the Kubuntu crew to help with triaging
bug reports, writing or editing documentation, translations and of
course packaging.

Thanks!
