As Plasma and Upstream master branches have now moved to Qt6, the following is planned:

• Mycroft-GUI will see a final QT5 version release and master branches will be moved to QT6
• OVOS-shell will see a final QT5 version release and master branches will be moved to QT6
• Any fixes that are needed to go in Mycroft-GUI and OVOS-shell QT5 versions will be made in a backports branch that will then see minor releases.
• The skills that have already been ported will get a UI / UI5 folder
• Any images should use the released versions and not master to package GUI once this is done if they are on older base images shipping qt5.
• Skills that are not updated just won't work, on qt6 images, basic ones under ovos should.
• Will be offering help to both Neon, MycroftAI to port any GUI skill needed to Qt6
• Anyone else who has QT5 skills ill get to those in the coming week.
• Manjaro image building will be disabled until above is completed, a message will be added to the docs to not run "sudo pacman -Syu"

• [ ] Move all GUI resources from core (/res/ui)

i think these would fit well into this repo, may need some thinking as the resource file loaders live mostly in ovos_workshop, suppose a companion PR will be needed there

• Mycroft-GUI master now on QT6
• Mycroft-GUI QT5 stable branch release at: https://github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-gui/releases/tag/stable-qt5
