Fedora Core "KDE 4 is seen by many to be the next big step on the free software desktop, while others think releasing 4.0 in its current condition was misleading and a mistake. Either way, it's an innovative release and inline with Fedora's goal of providing the latest and greatest free software it is set to be the default KDE environment in the next major release of Fedora. We caught up with two members of the KDE SIG to talk about the work they're doing to get it ready for release, their own opinions on the software and what they think about the progress made by Fedora in getting over its GNOME centric reputation."

F7 has been released with KDE 3.5.6. Last update has KDE 3.5.8 :

> There is a 3.5.9

KDE 3.5.9 will be in F7 and F8. There is in the build and test process.
Exemple for F7 (kdebase package) :

Exemple for F8 (kdebase package) :
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=36252

That's the Fedore "touch" :

To do as much of the development work as possible directly in the upstream packages. We will in general prefer moving to a newer version for updates rather than backport fixes.
