(Disclaimer: I've been a KDE developer since the 2.x days and was deeply involved in the KDE 4 process).
Just out of curiousity Will, how much thought was given to how these changes would affect the current KDE3.x installed base? I've been at a loss to understand some of the new ideas beind KDE4 and how they are supposed to make things better. (probably because in my case they make things work - as an old Workplace Shell user I always liked KDE's clean and trim interface) I fully understand that you guys wanted to remove some of the clutter from the system, but is it really a majority of devs and users who want the new features like effects and all that other stuff? It just seems like there's been a push to replace missing KDE3 stuff that's probably slowed down the new stuff. Not trying to start a flame, just trying to understand why the drastic changes were decided upon.
