Hmmm, I hope this time that KDE sticks as long as possible with stable
Qt 2.x.x, and then when Qt3 is out, release a direct port of the latest
KDE without any new features.

Last time was a disaster, IMHO, with stable KDE having remained
stagnant for way too long while developers wrestled with unstable
libraries and constantly changing features.

Please backport...  ;)

Cheers,
Navin.
