"I think it's really necessary to respond to some criticism seen on the reactions to the
latest OSnews article. I won't go into the article itself, imho it's rather negative, but hey. From an user's perspective, it makes sense to only review 3 or 4 parts of KDE 4 and complain about them, and ignore all the other brilliant pieces of work in there, right? On to the responses, I found
this reaction by dagw to be the most typical. Well. That's painful. So, is he right? Did we make the wrong decision? Let's look at it from a broader perspective for a while.
Let's see it in the Grand Scheme of Things to Come."

No matter the name or warnings or whatever that come out, distros will package as they see fit and users will use, for the majority, what their distro packages. If the feature list for the .0.0 milestone has been completed, then its time to release it, start collecting bug reports for the 4.0.x releases and start working on features for the 4.x series.
In the end, all of this noise is going to be nothing more than a foot note in the history of the 4 series anyway.
