The drop of KDE 3 is a very good example. Once in a while someone comes around arguing that dropping KDE 3 is a bad idea and KDE4 is much worse, ... - if invited to maintain KDE:KDE3 -> silence.
No. It would seem that the majority of the KDE3 users aren't programmers and therefore unable to do what needs to be done to maintain it. While I laud the developer's goal to make KDE4 work, I have yet to find it as usable, stable, or as fast as KDE3. However, since I decided to stick with 11.0 for now, I haven't even tried KDE4 recently. I've taken a wait and see attitude for 11.2. I will probably do some testing once it hits Beta(or Milestone 5 - Whose idea was it to change that?)
Sure some features need to be done by it's maintainers, e.g. disabling beagle by default is done easily by everyone but still the maintainers should be convinced by arguments not by one line patches. Same goes for pulseaudio and the like. I don't have any sound problems on factory though, so I wonder why pulseaudio is still a problem to some.
The biggest pet peave for me is that those things are unneccessary and shouldn't be on by default. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
