KDE e.V.’s latest report is out. In this issue, we cover the activities of our association in 2024. KDE’s yearly report gives a comprehensive overview of all that has happened during 2024, covering the progress we have made with KDE’s Plasma and applications as well as results from community sprints, conferences, and external events the KDE community has participated in worldwide.
Actually, yeah, every year for them its released the summer of the following year.
Each subproject submits their own detailed overview of the prior year, including any conference/working group events, sprints, pictures from the same, mentorship progeams, major changes in individual projects, as well as detailed financials for where money came from, where the money went.
It generally will take a few months to compile that (especially when you’re talking an open source foundation with a multitude of groups under the umbrella), and then time to organize it all.
Even companies will take several months after the conclusion of their year to provide similar details in an annual review.
Its a bit late this year being in August, usually its June, but late spring to summer is when it gets released every year.
Edited to add: I think it even came out in October or November some years back. 2018? 2019? Something like that.
2024?
Reports are usually done for the past year. 2025 has not finished, so no day of making a complete report.
Generally speaking, you would produce a report recapping a year after that year is over, yes.
But not usually after nearly half a year later
