KDE "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."

Well, for the long time I didn't like aseigo idea. But recently I tried to use kde4 and it looks really nice. Unfortunately plasma still misses many things from old kicker+kdesktop+kmenu combo and many core applications lost some nuances which made use of them pure pleasure (eg. key navigation in autocompletion).
