I looked at it, being that it is an experimental release, in a virtual machine. I did not like it, and stayed on with KDE3.
In this case, I am a consumer. I am a participant, but NOT IN KDE. However, although I did not like it, and did not consider it finished, this is all I have to say negative, because I have a choice of what to use. Unlike Vista where the end of sales of XP (and eventual end of patches) means that I have no choice. Since this is open source, I can help maintain KDE3 if it is that important, either migrating it to the new Qt library, or maintaining the old libraries.
This is open, there are no secrets. If you don't like it, fix it.
As for me, I am going to just keep using KDE3 until 4 is ready, and if it never is, I will switch desktops. I like having a choice.
What went wrong with the KDE 4 release?
