They aren't giving feedback. How many people ranting and raving here on the mailing list actually comment on bug reports on kde.org where the feedback counts? Almost none. Instead they heap abuse on the people who try to help... look at all the flak and crap that Dotan has dealt with... somehow he hasn't given in.
This is so. I think people think that the KDE team have some great financing to to usability studies before the release. That is not the Open Source Model. Release often is the mantra. And admit it: how many would be testing KDE4 if it was not part of a good OS release? SUSE are doing a good job of getting the KDE team's frequent releases into our grubby little hands so we can provide feedback.
