    KDE 4 Coverage?

    KDE 4 logo

    The road to KDE's 4.0 release has been a little rocky. Many complained that the 4.0 release was not really ready for public consumption and it has taken some time for the new version to be smoothed out.

    Things are a lot better now, and the new features and underlying technologies really do make KDE a better platform to use.

    I'm FOSSwire's resident KDE user. While I also like GNOME as a desktop, I tend to spend most of my GUI Linux time on KDE.

    So, my question is this - should I move my KDE platform to 4.0 and start covering 4.x only applications and features from this point forward? Should I stick with 3.x? Or should I stagger the transition?

    It's you, the readers of FOSSwire, that make this what it is. So - what do you want to see in FOSSwire's future KDE coverage?

    UPDATE: Thanks for all your feedback. The general consensus appears to be to start looking at and reviewing KDE 4 apps and KDE 4 specific features. I will try to make sure that future KDE posts make it clear on which versions the functionality is available.
