"After the recent release KDE 4.1 beta 2 and openSUSE 11 with KDE 4.0.4, some critics have been especially vocal in expressing their displeasure with the KDE 4 user interface paradigms. The debate has grown increasingly caustic as critics and supporters engage in a war of words over the technology. The controversy has escalated to the point where some users are now advocating a fork in order to move forward the old KDE 3.5 UI paradigms. As an observer who has closely studied each new release of KDE 4, I'm convinced that the fork rhetoric is an absurdly unproductive direction for this debate."

The way I see it is that KDE4 is not surpassing KDE3 in any way, yet, maybe in the future and is not granted, who is willing to waith a year for KDE4.2 since KDE 4.1 is going to be yet another incomplete and unstable release? And no, Im not trolling, I tried the latest build and you can call it a beta, but those are numerous bugs that wont be fixed in time.
I say fork KDE3 since KDE4 is just a bunch of broken promises, oh, but you can't really say it because Aaron Seigo will do his number and close his blog, what an atention whore, I say close your blog and let your work speak for you, but not try to act like the god's gift to linux users, Im so tired of his litle numbers "love me, love my vision, you don't understand", grow up already and take responsability for once.
