KDE Groklaw has interviewed KDE about some recent misconceptions about KDE 4. "There has been a bit of a dustup about KDE 4.0. A lot of opinions have been expressed, but I thought you might like to hear from KDE. So I wrote to them and asked if they'd be willing to explain their choices and answer the main complaints. They graciously agreed."

No, he's not. And he is, probably full knowingly, misinterpreting the quote. What is being said is that the time KDE developers spend on new features could not be spent on lower level stuff like the usual whiners keep pretending. He makes it appear to be about QA and how FOSS developers don't test/debug their code.

I'm sorry, but the fact of the matter is that in the real world FOSS software is in that regard usually better off than its commercial counterpart.
