KDE KDE 4.0.0 has been released onto the world. "The KDE Community is thrilled to announce the immediate availability of KDE 4.0. This significant release marks both the end of the long and intensive development cycle leading up to KDE 4.0 and the beginning of the KDE 4 era." KDE 4.0 is the first release of "KDE 4", but take note that the developers have clearly stated that KDE 4.0 is not KDE 4, but more of a base release with all the underlying systems ready to go, but with still a lot of work to be done on the user-visible side. Download it from the KDE 4.0 info page. Update: Screenshots.

No matter what the developers intended this to be, there will be detractors who are only concerned with what they wanted it to be


Excuse me, but in all fairness, it's not like some KDE fans have not been heralding KDE 4.0 as Jesus' second coming for a couple of years now. If it falls short of those lofty claims, I don't think that it would be terribly inappropriate to point it out to them, say, about half the number of times that the claims have been made. And maybe even have a bit of a laugh at their expense.
