"The first KDE 4 release will come along with several major changes compared to KDE 3.x. While explanations for these changes have been posted at several places before there is a central list missing which explains the reasons to normal users. This post lists some hot topics and tries to shed some light on the reasons behind certain decisions." Update: The release date for KDE 4.0 has been postponed from mid-December to January 11th 2008. I'll be sure to give you my address, Aaron. Insert smiley face.

that's not particularly how it works. patches get submitted and are picked up based on their merit. it really doesn't matter where they come from. nor does patches submitted lead to having to wait longer for releases.
please consider the actual history of the kde project in this regard and you'll find that your assessment is just a chicken little scenario.
