Well, but this isn't necissarily a good thing; KDE CVS is not intended for end 
users -- that's why we do releases.  Typically there's been something of a 
limiting factor in the users that were running CVS versions of KDE in that 
they both had to be willing and knowledgeable enough to compile it from 
source.

Making it even easier -- i.e. giving out KDE CVS CD's at a show just sounds 
like a horrible idea.  "Guaranteed buggy!"  Please see the thread on 
core-devel about development releases and why we don't do more of them.  ;-)
