KDE's Aaron Seigo (who owes me a Martini) wrote about a few
often-heard misconceptions and questions regarding KDE 4.0, which is supposed to be released January 11th.
"Now that 4.0.0 is tagged and out and that bit of worry and concern is behind me for the moment, I wanted to take a moment to talk really bluntly about 4.0. In particular, I'm going to address some of the common memes in fairly random order that I see about kde 3.5 and 4.0. I'm going to speak bluntly (though not rudely) so prepare yourself."

To be fair, we also have reasonably large-scale polls like this:

and so claims of GNOME (and Ubuntu) dominance aren't completely without merit. Having said that, it hasn't made one whit of difference to the development of KDE: it's still a *hugely* active project and has a very bright future, IMO.
