Disambiguation "KDE 4", did you mean "KDE 4.0"?
,----[ Quote ]
| Let me try to disambigue: "KDE 4" refers to the whole life-time of
| the KDE 4.x based framework, like "KDE 3" does for now five years
| and six KDE 3.x releases. The "KDE 4.0" release will be just the
| first one in the "KDE 4" cycle.
|
| "KDE 4" can be compared to "MacOS X" (although it will be an
| evolutionary update rather than as revolutionary as MacOS X was
| compared to System 9). "KDE 4.0" can be compared to "MacOS X 10.0",
| which was far from complete in term of frameworks and functionality
| compared to today's current MacOS X 10.4 release.

| Rodda is also bullish about KDE 4's ability to attract more commercial ISVs
| to port applications to the environment, primarily because of the
| multi-platform capability that comes with using Qt 4.
