When can we expect KDE 4.8 update on openSUSE 12.1?

It's already there - been there for at least a couple of weeks and I have been using it since.
Where to get it was given in a post in this list by Phanisvara Das on 31 January.
now there's an additional option for using KDE 4.8, with KDE:/Distro:/Factory (http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Distro:/Factory/ ).
even though that's supposedly less stable than the repos under KDE:/Release, i usually prefer them, since bug fixes appear earlier. of course, using KDF, one also has to switch any additional repos, like KDE:/Extra and KDE:/Unstable:/Playground, to the versions built against KDF.
i switched to KDF a few days ago and find that some bugs i saw in the Release:/ version have been fixed already, like .xcf (GIMP) files not showing in digikam & gwenview, per example, or ark refusing to start.
I switched to KR48 SC after an upgrade from oS 11.3 to 11.4. And I find this KDE version quite stable and almost would say bugs free. e.g.: Choqok usually used to crash when I quit on all previous versions. I doen't on the KR48SC. As far I tested other applications with no issues. Calligra Suite is working pretty fine as far too.
