summary

KDE e.V. reports 11 new members and 84 individual supporters (down from 95) and is migrating infrastructure to GitLab, switching CVCRM contractors after failures; budget lets them spend reserves for 3–4 years. Qt input handling for Qt 6 adds a QPointerEvent redesign (device hierarchy, events-by-value, grabs moved to device) — prototype works but APIs and allocation choices still settle. QtQuick Controls 2 gets a forked QStyle for native look (Mac/Win/Linux), still beta. Flatpak: ~50 KDE apps on Flathub, some apps hit ~35k installs; manifests and runtimes (KDE runtime/SDK) are the workflow. Dev tools: ansible+vagrant for server infra, hot-reload tools (kot) and web demo (kline) speed QML prototyping. Clear.Dental shows a QML/C++ touch-first dental EHR prototype targeting clinical use; Linux graphics talk maps Mesa/Gallium, shader IR, and fences for GPU sync.
