In my opinion, this would be easier if each program were released 
invididually, with the exception of kdelibs and kdebase

I say this because of, for example, libraries/programs that a user may not 
have/want, because their computer isn't compatible.  For example, PCMCIA 
stuff, power management, and KPilot, all of which I cannot use, and would be 
wasting disk space quite well here.
