Well, right now I have to get my KDE 4.2 from Factory.  However, I don't 
want to run KDE 4.3 alpha/beta releases; I'd rather stick with 4.2.x during 
that time.  From what I understand, the KDE 4.3 alphas/betas will be in 
Factory at some point so they can be prepared for oS 11.2.

What happens to KDE 4.2 during that time (prior to oS 11.2 release, prior to 
KDE 4.3 release, after KDE 4.3 alphas)?
