No, I can't remember. It was likely on fedora-kde in a discussion about
Fedora 21. IIRC the one of the KDE SIG's members said that there are no plans 
to officially ship Plasma2 in F21 because it's too unstable/unpredictable and 
SC4 and Plasma 2 can't be installed simultaneously without folder prefixes 
which Fedora does not support for software in its main repo. Or something like 
that.

Maybe I remember that stuff wrong, maybe things have changed (I don't hang out 
on IRC).

PS: The name "Plasma 5" is still a bad idea after "Plasma 2" was broadly 
communicated for over a year.
