Users need to be eased through major changes. even positive major changes.
The KDE devs can't really be blamed for not seeing this coming, but I hope the whole community learns from this. KDE 3 is still the default for most distros, but it's been dwarfed by KDE 4 on the kde.org website. You got the feeling that KDE3 is being abandoned, when that's not really true at all. There's a new KDE release coming out. When I learned that, it was beginning of a slow process of relaxing.
I'm running KDE 4.0something right now, in opensuse11. I'm not at all convinced yet, but I'm intrigued.
The less I feel pushed toward KDE 4, the less frightening KDE 4 appears.
Learn about Linux
Download Linux
Get Linux help
I think I can put it in one sentence for you
