A (potentially) major blow to Fedora 9 is that it uses KDE by default


Now that would be a radical change. Where did you read that?

All i can see is that they plan to ship KDE-spins, but to my knowledge, Gnome is the default DE for Fedora 9, and i would be very surprised if that were to change in the next few years.
