What recent change in the KDE releasing schema let you think that they will
manage to get a really stable x.y.0 release [*] when it seems like it took 4
minor releases in the 3.1 branch ?

Naturally, no offense intended to the kde guys. Needing only 4 minor releases
to stabilize such an amount of code is really great.

[*] ie, suitable for debian stable release, ie a version with which you
could live for a year on your desktop, maybe dreaming of new features (we
always want more), but not pesting against the bugs.
I speak of course of the ideal debian stable release ;)
