KDE "The KDE Community is happy to release the fourth Beta for KDE 4.0. This Beta aimed at further polishing of the KDE codebase and we would love to start receiving feedback from testers. As KDE has largely has been in bugfix mode, this latest Beta aims to encourage testers to have a look at it to help us find and solve the remaining problems and bugs. Besides the stabilization of the codebase, some minor features have been added, including but not limited to much work on Plasma, the KDE 4 desktop shell. Sebastian Kugler notes: 'The improvements have been huge, and plasma is much closer to what it needs to be before the release. I am confident we will be able to finish it and present a very usable plasma to our userbase with KDE 4.0. We will then be able to extend on that and present truly innovative desktop interfaces throughout the KDE 4 lifecycle.'"

No, it wasn't clear from the start, it was all hype as always in KDE, and now the reality have slapped them, so, lets waith for another 7 to 8 months to see a decent realease.

That's is simple dissapointing to all KDE users, I hope they learn not to overhype and get real next time.


No. I'm KDE user and it was clear to me from the start a I'm not disappointed.

The problem is the denial and the "I'll excuse them at any cost" syndrome.

But why I should be disappointed when I'm happy with 3.5.8? It will be done when it's done.
