I don't have numbers... but aren't we all going to update to KDE 4.2 anyway one month after 11.1 release? ;-)
Not all, just some. Not all people want update to, or don't know how, or even is afraid of. And yet some will still saying KDE 4.2 isn't ready for them.
Michael said "maintain our reputation to offer the best integrated KDE". Well, IMHO you have great official KDE packages... but you also offer great OBS KDE packages. That makes a lot of people update to the latest OBS packages without expecting any problems. If KDE 4.2 is "good enough (tm)" I don't expect too much complains if KDE 3.5.10 isn't available. Just keep a copy of the KDE3 spec files and patches in the OBS in case someone wants to mantain them.
Keeping KDE3 packages in OBS as eg community supported, and releasing a KDE3 LiveCD with them would be better. This way users could have still the chance of install openSUSE with KDE3 as default. KDE3 is pretty solid and it is now in maintenance only. No blocker or critical bug should be found, and thus there is no need to support it officially by openSUSE/Novell. It's (almost) bug-free! -- Regards, Carlos Goncalves --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
