I just wanted to ask here what do you have in kde3.5 and don't find in
kde4 and you would like to have. Not to say you will have it but to
give info to devs...

So far it is only a handful of applications. Off the top of my head it's just
KDirStat and Kaffeine.

I stopped using kde4 on 11.1 for problems in the config panel and lack
of understanding of the new windows layout. I expect this to be solved
before next release;

I started using KDE 4.2x (from the openSUSE BuildService) a couple of months
ago. It is riddled with bugs, and many applications lost functions which I
found important.

what do you think? be constructive :-)

I am thinking that I still want my KDE 3.5.10 back. That's not very
constructive, but it's honest. So far, KDE 4 is one big disappointment, and my
overall feeling is that it is slow, that it crashes way too often and that I
can't find functions I used to use, because they are not there anymore or
because they are too well hidden.

I know that I can't go back to KDE3, if I want to keep up with the openSUSE
releases, but I don't like KDE4. I tried switching to Gnome, but that was not
my cup of tea either.

NB: I miss the kweather applet, but it don't work neither in kde 3.5 :-(

I actually found a good weather plasmoid, it's called cwp.
