"This week in Plasma" brings the news that...

Plasma 6.6 is nearly ready for shipping! Look out for it next Tuesday.

... And videos in Plasma 6.7's SDDM login screens can be previewed in System Settings, KWin dialogs have been overhauled and polished, and much more.

A screenshot of the new Plasma 6.6. On the background of abstract-looking evergreens, you can see three open windows, one showing Plasma's System Setting utility on the left, KDE's software management app Discover in the center, and the calendar widget open in the bottom right hand corner. Along the bottom you can see Plasma's classic floating panel.
