All for it. Either that, or a stripped down KDE4 that looks and works more like KDE3.
Having tried to install from the KDE4 liveCD, I was unable to remove KDE4 and replace it with KDE3 without dependency hell.
I would definately be willing to help out in any way I can - like testing.
Great. Can you attend next week's KDE IRC meeting? (http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/Meetings) and we'll soon find ways for you to help. If the time doesn't fit, shout and we'll set something else up.
No. I don't have an irc account(nor do I use any IM or even text messaging on my cell phone - I have unlimited minutes, I call people). Further, I hope to be at the beach with my son during that meeting, but please go ahead and let those guys know that: 1. I would definately support a KDE3 LiveCD until KDE4 is fully matured(hopefully by 4.2). What amazes me is that these guys should know that especially businesses don't just upgrade like this. They want a full working system. Basically why we have avoided Vista like the plague. While I don't administer a linux setup, I am going to install a Linux server and workstation(probable 2-3) at the company I just joined to make things much easier than how they are doing it now, and I don't have time to reconfig KDE4 to work like i need it. 2. I will be willing to test it out on i386, x96-64, and PPC. I don't program, but I will help anyway i can. 3. That I realize that KDE4 is the future, but there is still a lot of life left in KDE3. KDE4 is a work in progress. When it's much more complete(not done mind you) compared to KDE3, I will move toward it. Till then, I don't have a lot of time to work with it. Time is money at my job, and that's the last place I have time to have to make things work. Getting machines fixed and customers happy is what pays the bills.
