KDE PolishLinux site takes a look at KDE 4.2 based on the latest subversion branch and concludes: "As it can be seen, the KDE4 development is running at full throttle. KDE4.2 will include much enhanced functionality and versatility than KDE 4.1, but still a lot of work has to be done in many areas, especially when it comes to the stability of the applications." Hopefully some of the long standing stability and maturity issues with KDE 4.x branch are resolved before the GA release.

For anybody who reads the article and decides to try it out right now, the soft feature freeze just happened and a bunch of major changes have gone into svn. It'll take a little while for all the new things to get settled. On the plus side, a bunch of great features and improvements went in (Jingle support in kopete, for instance, a python dataengine in plasma). So if you want to try it out, consider waiting a week for things to settle down.
