Well....no....it's the normal test cycle...it's just public now. With 10.0 they started the public part in the beta stage. From what I understand they have traditionally already been working on the next alpha at the release time of the current version...the BETA stage is about 6 to 8 weeks, which is what you might be referring to. I wouldn't touch an alpha release for any of my other than STRICTLY test machines with a 10 foot pole.

About KDE4....not really. If it's out in time, the'll put it in...if it isn't, it will be KDE 3.5. They don't "have" to wait for anything. My feeling is that KDE 4 will be delayed a bit anyway since it's such a major jump. We'll see...

I have ordered 10.0 and will install it next week...I'm running beta 4 now on this machine and it's been great!
