Take it as it is, but KDE 3.5 _is_ a step child and we can continue this "we need a KDE 3.X (where X is larger than the previous released)" discussion for years now. It just won't help us. We started with KDE 4 development - given fact. This means KDE 3.5 sees less development than any other KDE3 release - given fact. Now we have to make sure to find the balance between a) getting KDE 3.5 out at all and b) getting KDE 4 out in an overseeable future. I posted this as request for comments because I knew it is pretty controversial, but past showed me that people don't jump on such suggestions when they are two months away[1]. I'm very happy that we have a fruitful discussion going on now and I'm sure we will find a compromise that works for all of us.
