"Novell dips KDE 3.5 (...) OpenSuse-Community-Manager (...) said that OpenSuse 11.1 would be the last version with KDE 3.5, and would contain only a stripped down version of the desktop. Strting with openSuSE 11.2 there will be no more KDE 3.5 components in the repositories (...)" - quick and dirty translation of LinuxUser 11.2008
Well, I don't know how far KDE 4.x will be when 11.1 comes out. Judging by 4.1.2 and Sebastian Kügler's interview in the same magazin (more plasmoids and new features and not a single word about bringing back the "old" fonctionalities) it seems I should quickly look for a replacement distribution........
I don't hope to change Novell's decision, but am I the only one here to say "no, KDE 4 has *not* the desktop, file manager and other desktop management elements I want?

No you're not. I also want the KDE 3.5 functionality to continue. Based on what I've seen of KDE 4, it's not something I'd ever want on *MY* computers.
