[opensuse-kde] KDE Factory warning

Hey
Since using the KDE Factory repository will most likely be a rather bumpy ride
in the coming months, because of 11.3+1 skipping KDE 4.5 and getting 4.6, I
thought it was best to warn people now, when a lot of people are tempted to
upgrade to 4.4.5. The below text is copied from my blog.
=======================================
With openSUSE 11.3 less than a week away, soon it’ll be time to think about
11.3+1 which will be released in March 2011 with KDE SC 4.6.
This should interest people using the KDE Factory repository a great deal,
because it means that Factory should move to KDE SC 4.5 RC very shortly, and
in November it will move to KDE SC 4.6 Beta. Leaving users with no choice
other than using 4.6 Beta or downgrading to 4.4.4 which will be the version
officially supported in 11.3 and available in the KDE Stable repository.
In other words, if you don’t wish to use KDE SC 4.6 Beta in November, don’t
use the KDE Factory repository! Switch to the KDE Stable repository, which
already has 4.4.4. Consider yourself warned.
