Can we expect to do in-place upgrades from KDE5 to KDE6, or will it require a full re-install?
Let's say upgrade from Kubuntu 23.10 with Plasma 5.27 to Kubuntu 24.04 with Plasma 6.0 (assuming Kubuntu ships 6.0)

I don't think a reinstall should be necessary. I upgraded a Neon unstable machine from 5.x to 6 in place and it worked fine. The final release should work the same.
Awesome! 😎 thanks for chiming in with your experience
