When a project with the size and scope of KDE gets to be as big as it is, sometimes changing a decision established almost a decade earlier is very difficult.

The last article about okular had someone spouting off about how okular wasn't as polished as evince or the mac's doc viewer. I think he got about 10 replies or so, all telling him that you can't expect a pre-alpha release to be more polished than released software. Some people just have no common sense. :-)

I believe a better term would be "work in progress".
