The purpose of the KDE Release Team is to define and execute the official software releases of KDE.

The Release Team is responsible for setting release schedules for the official KDE releases. This includes release dates, deadlines for individual release steps and restrictions for code changes.

The Release Team coordinates release dates with the marketing and press efforts of KDE.

Please contact the Release Team by email or join our public mailing list.
