Fedora 9 ships KDE4.0 only (with kde3 apps and libs but no full desktop) and
their policy is "if you don't think kde4.0 is ready, shut up and skip
a release".

I believe they do a mistake too, but again, they are a GNOME-centric
distro, so their users won't care much...
Unlike openSUSE, that has a very big KDE community.
Pushing KDE4 will hurt openSUSE much more than Fedora.

And again, adding KDE3 as an easy-to-spot option will make our life way easier.

Yes, I can choose KDE3 option from Yast, but it will be hard to
explain to my less-knowledgeble friends over the phone. Currently it
is not user-friendly.
