KDE 4.0 Reviewer Reminders

Submitted by srlinuxx on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 20:47.

Before everyone starts to spread his opinion about KDE 4.0 let me spread some reminders:

* KDE 4.0 is not KDE4 but only the first (4.0.0 even non-bugfix) release in a years-long KDE4 series to come.
* KDE 4.0 is known to have missing parts or temporary implementations (eg printing, PIM, Plasma).
* Most changes happened under the surface and cannot be discovered in a "30 minutes usage"-review anyway.

  • Most applications (many are not even fully ported yet) will take advantage of new features which the new Qt/KDE libraries offer only later.
  • KDE 4.0 is only expected to be used by early adopters...

An x.0 release, to me, means it's not necessarily bug-free, but it's production-quality. If v4.0 is admittedly not production-quality, then why the hell are you folks releasing it now?
