Come on Aaron, you can do better than that. I asked for missing core functionality. Can you point to it or can't you?
Got amnesia?
Answer the question, with details please.
It's been put out several times already.
Otherwise you and the other detractors are just spreading FUD.
Or experiencing actual deficiencies. Even the KDE devs acknowledge that KDE 4 currently has nothing close to the functionality of KDE 3... so why in the world are you STILL clinging to that tired old song and dance routine that KDE 4 is every bit as functional as KDE 3.
I don't know what your agenda is, but it doesn't seem to be the improvement of either opensuse 11 or KDE.
The best improvement to OpenSUSE 11 would be to put KDE 4 on the back burner until it is READY to supplant KDE 3. When will that be? Who knows...but it certainly is NOT within the next couple of months. Throwing more coders at it will simply slow things down. (see: "The Mythical Man Month" by Brooks). The devs know what is missing, and know what they have to do. Putting up bogus bug reports for work that's not yet done is like telling a group of car designers that the project vehicle doesn't have doors yet-- yes...THEY KNOW THAT ALREADY... if they thought it was complete, they would say, "IT's done!" KDE 4 has a LONG way to go, and the devs know it. They don't need me or anyone else nagging them. What we *DO* need, however, is for the SuSE people to stop selling KDE short by hyping as better than its current state of (non-)completion warrants.
Contribute, not just with bitching.
Quit defending stupid decisions, and condescending replies by those who are making them.
