Hi, 

I've been wondering what the best plan for moving KDE 4.2 into 
KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop is. 

The current state is: 

KDE:KDE4:STABLE:Desktop: KDE 4.1.3, based on openSUSE 11.1 (including non-
released updates). 

KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop: devel project  for kde4 related packages in  
openSUSE:Factory, currently loosely in sync with :STABLE but not quite. 

KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE:Desktop: KDE 4.2x based snapshots, which are not really 
synced with openSUSE fixes/additions in :Factory. 


The next steps: 

KDE 4.1.4 will be released soon, probably marking the end of KDE 4.1.x regular 
patch releases. It could enter :Factory:Desktop, but not :STABLE. 

KDE 4.2 rc1 will be released soon, giving a good opportunity to merge 
:UNSTABLE into :Factory and freeing up :UNSTABLE for KDE 4.3 development, 
which starts next week. On the downside, KDE 4.1.4 won't be packageable then. 

Any opinions? I'm leaning towards merging the current :UNSTABLE state into 
:Factory and enable syncing when patches etc have been merged. This would 
allow early development to start, but on the other side will irritate openSUSE 
11.1 users (:Factory:Desktop is currently the recommended openSUSE 
BuildService KDE4 repository). 


Greetings,
Dirk
