+1 works really great and feels good.
Only a small question while the discussion is on. The complete sentences are
a little bit long. So, for my loved banner (for privat webpages and blogs) I
need a short clear phrase and I'd like to add a version number. How could we
do this?
"N days until KDE 4.x Release Day!" (Sort, but is it clear enough that
KDE is not the product but the community?)
"N days until KDE's 4.x Release Day!" (It's clearer, that KDE is the
community, but sounds strange.)
"KDE Release Day: New Version 4.5 in N Days" (long but ok.)
"KDE Release Day: 4.5 arrives in N Days" (hm...)
"KDE Release Day: N Days to 4.5" (sounds strange?)
"KDE's Summer 2010 Release Day in N Days" (a bit long and doesn't mention
the well known version numbers but sounds ok.)
My english isn't that perfect. So please help me here.
