Actually it said the KDE -libs- will be there, nothing about the desktop being there.
... expect the whole KDE "stack" to be there.
So, please clarify for us: Exactly what _is_ changing? Surely this is not all about a simple change of defaults, is it?
At the end of the day, if you are just thinking of KDE vs. GNOME, it's at most a change of defaults and a concentrated development focus. [Please take into account, that we are just talking about business products (SLES, NLD)!]
Given the apparent misinformation or confusing presentation, it would be nice to have it from someone who _knows_ what's up.
... just read my other post on this topic. That's pretty much it, what I can tell to the best of my knowledge, at this point in time.

From a business decision perspective, it seems like a good one. Gnome has more of a look and feel similar to the MS Windows interface that most businesses are used to using. If they are looking at getting businesses to convert to a SuSE Desktop, then keeping the learning curve down would aide in that process.
Actually KDE looks more like Windows than Gnome does. Gnome is more a Mac UI.
Just my two cents though.
Personally, I will mourne the loss of KDE.
