I doubt they'd release a buggy 4.0 on a major distribution point version such as 11.0.
SUSE (S.u.S.E. | SuSE | SUSE) has always been early with new KDE releases since day one. Why should this be any different
And far more people would complain if it wasn't included
Discuss if it should be the default or not, not whether it should be included, because it should and it will
Until KDE 4 has caught up to KDE 3 in functionality and configurability, KDE 3 should remain the default.
The last thing I want is my KDE-3 configurations to be lost because KDE-4 doesn't know what to do with them, and then when KDE-4 finally catches up, have to re-do those configurations again.
Leave KDE-4 as the non-default until it's ready for prime time. Keeping KDE-4 as optional on a distro as large as OpenSUSE will provide pressure on the KDE devs to keep their eye on preserving current functionality instead of fixating exclusively on eye-candy and other bells and whistles which maybe amusing, but of no actual value.
Agreed to Aaron here. I got 10.3 installed and kalarm is 'kde4'...and doesn't work as simply as it did/does on SuSE9.3. In the OpenSuse 10.3 version, it wants me to write/use some script. If I knew how to code or whatever, great, but since I'm just a plain home user and can't just click a radio button or two and set the time for an alarm with an up/down arrow, I ditched 10.3. (if anyone's going to say 'get an alarm clock', I have one...*my computer*!)
