RE[3]: KDE 4 not catching up

in reply to "RE[2]: KDE 4 not catching up"
I also agree with you that distos are not manging KDE implementation properly and KUbuntu sucks if you directly compare it with Ubuntu implementation of GNome.
At risk of sounding like a troll, I think Kubuntu sucks period.
It's not only the ugly duckling of the *buntu family, but it's one of the poorest KDE4 distro's to boot.
But at risk of repeating myself (and because I'd hate to leave this post on such a negative tone), Canonical have announced that they're going to be giving Kubuntu some much needed TLC. So hopfully KDE4 will soon have a flagship - n00b-friendly - distro to be proud of.

The problem is KDE allowed GNome to catchup during the 3.5 to 4 transition. I was hardcore fan of KDE and used KDE from Version 1...
I also agree with you that distos are not manging KDE implementation properly and KUbuntu sucks if you directly compare it with Ubuntu implementation of GNome. Also God knows whats up with PCLinuxOS! After there 0.9.2 version which was shipped with KDE 3.5, I still have not seen them releasing full fledged KDE 4 release.
Never the less I hope KDE gus without losing there momentum continue to develop KDE 4 and someday people may move back to KDE.
