Hey!

Thanks for hijacking the thread when it was specifically started with:

"It's not when it's available but more what Novell want's to achieve with it."

So I'd love if anyone would care to discsuss where we want to go,
rather than when.

How tha h... should we now when when nobody has a clue about what's going in?

and as a side note, I think we sould care LESS about KDE 4.1 vs 4.2 or
Gnome 2.x. It's what the users can get done withn it that counts. Both
current major desktops are usable for years to come.....

Maybe a new thread should be started or is factory not the right place
to discuss contents?

Boy this irritates me:
From: Michael Loeffler

First we talked about July '09 release to come close to an 8 months
release cycle. But KDE 4.3 is scheduled for release on June 30th and
probably an OpenOffice.org release will be out end of June as well -
both wouldn't make it into a July openSUSE 11.2. Therfor we're now
thinking about a September release. Beside of getting the most
current OpenOffice and KDE in

Why?

I asked for a delay for KDE 4.2 and was shot down because of the 6
month cycle. Now they are talking about a 9 month and what I had
asked for..........

Yes, you asked for it far after the schedule has been fixed. And even, when
such a delay should have been considered, It would have been really impossible
to switch to KDE4.2 that fast over christmas holidays. Maybe, those KDE
wirzards working at SUSE could have made it, but it is impossible to be sure
about that.

Now we are lucky, that the release of KDE4.3 (and some other important
releases, too) and openSUSE 11.2 will be a good match, even if KDE4.3 would be
released a little bit later than planned.
