reviews KDE 4.0.0:
"KDE 4.0 was officially released last week after extensive development. The long-awaited 4.0 release ushers in a new era for the popular open-source desktop environment and adds many intriguing new features and technologies. Unfortunately, the release comes with almost as many new bugs as it does features, and there is much work to be done before it sparkles like the 3.5.x series." They were also at the
KDE 4.0 release event.

In this case, a good way is to look at the top three or five most used applications/functions, and ask if they have even 60% of the functionality from the previous version. If there's even a question about it, then no, it's not ready for release. As much as I'm a little tired of snipings at the kde devs, come on now. It doesn't take a giant usability team to figure out that the panel is just a toy or that fish is messed up.
