Yeah, this worries me. If SuSE just needs to crank out a new release for the revenue, I wish they would just include stable versions. I would be happy to pay to an 8.0 release with KDE 2.2.2 since there have been many upgrades and bug fixes made to other packages since 7.3 came out (evolution, apache, games, etc.). They could include KDE3 as an option and not make it the default desktop.
I doubt they will make it the default, personally. If you remember 7.0 was *billed* as coming with the latest 2.4 kernel, but it wasn't the default; nonetheless, because it *could* be used with 7.0, the marketdroids made loud noises about it. I would guess that 8.0 will be released with something as close as possible to KDE 3 beta 2 as an optional install, and when the final version is released, it will be available from the FTP site. cheers, Gideon.
