Well, I'm not sure I agree about losing momentum. KDE 4 certainly won't be
hitting everyone's desktop the moment of release, it'll take a bit for
packages to be made, vetted, and installed. Many more will not even try it
until its in the newest release from <insert_favorite_distribution>. Add to
that the hope that there will be this surge of desire to create fun
plasmoids, new cool effects to take advantage of kwin's compositing
capabilities, etc.
Of course, there are also other applications not on the KDE release schedule
which will ship roughly around the same time as KDE, or atleast this is what
is intended, and that will keep KDE discussions rolling imho.
So personally, I think....
