A (potentially) major blow to Fedora 9 is that it uses KDE by default


Now that would be a radical change. Where did you read that?

All i can see is that they plan to ship KDE-spins, but to my knowledge, Gnome is the default DE for Fedora 9, and i would be very surprised if that were to change in the next few years.

KDE 4.0.x will be the default KDE environment in the KDE spin but there is no change otherwise.
