- From a user's perspective I'd prefer experimental to ftp.kde.org.  
experimental is much more clearly part of debian so it is clear that the 
packages will be the official packages once the bugs are ironed out, as 
opposed to someone being helpful and puting up an apt repository. Thanks to 
gnome2, experimental is already in my sources.list with low priority so it 
isn't yet another Packages.gz to download each day (since it is accessed via 
FTP, kde's repository is quite slow to check). From a developer's 
perspective, experimental makes it easier to package programs that depend on 
KDE3.

Having said all that, I don't feel very strongly about it.
