4.4 was supposed to have major improvements over 4.3. 4.2 was supposed to fix 
major issues of 4.1 and 4.0. Also called, I believe, the first "stable" version 
of KDE 4.

I'd say none of the current versions can be called stable. Every new feature 
seems to need at least two point versions to become stable. With currently 
every new version having major new features I don't see a release coming soon 
that could honestly be called stable.

4.5 will have similar improvements and new issues over 4.4 as that had over 
4.3 as that had over 4.2 ...

Come to think of it, less expectations raised would've maybe led to less 
disappointment.
