Is that the same Alexey that is pushing Contrib repository? 

If yes, can you tell me any practical difference between community created 
software in OBS and Novell/openSUSE DVD. Practical difference is something 
that makes software better, not some word "official" without any reference 
why one should consider OBS lesser official than some other source. 

What will be the same:
Source code from KDE. 
Developers that build KDE.    

What will be different:
KDE3 missing on DVD created and distributed by Novell. 

Any business oriented guy will see this as opportunity, a gift from Novell. If 
demand is so huge as reactions on this list, than whoever jumps in will make 
a money. But better hurry, KDE3 madness will not last for a long. Kids that 
learn about Linux right now will grow with KDE4 and shape the future, not 
chew the past.
