10.1 YOU and zmd!
Exactly. This is what I fear most. I have *skipped* SUSE Linux 10.1 entirely due to the unresolved bugs in it (in package manager). I wouldn't like to skip openSUSE 11.0 as well, and if KDE4 will be default, it is likely to happen.
You guys are getting paranoid.
The YOU / zmd stuff was a special case because of what it does. ie. They handle security releases and SUSE does not provide security releases for the alpha/beta/rc releases. Thus no true testing. (Yes, they did provide a couple small test patches, but it was not much of a test.)
Obviously.
KDE4 is being fully tested via the alpha / beta /rc process and it is already in the roadmap to decide on a plan by April. The options are 3.5, 4.0, 4.1
If KDE 4 is in Alpha right now, and missing some of the most fundamental functionality, do you really expect it to be anywhere past Beta in a mere 8 weeks?
If you want to ensure they make the "right" decision (whatever that is), then you should be making as many real / specific bugzillas as appropriate. That way when April rolls around the team making the decision will know the true status of KDE4, instead of just have a bunch of generic "the sky is falling" comments.
I'm not saying that the roof is caving in. I'm saying that it's not even built yet -- and there's another load of scaffolding outside that still has to be put up FIRST.
