Which makes me wonder how feasable it is to get KDE 4 in Feisty+1. I guess with a lot of effort (and probably a month-delay or something) it would be possible to deliver the latest & greatest with Feisty+1 - after all, Ubuntu follows Gnome releases by a couple of weeks, so they pull it off every time. But KDE 4 is a big thing, and it would come down to a choice of (again...) a 3.5.x release, stable and all, or a bit more edgy, KDE 4 based release. A delay of 1 or 2 months of the release, provided KDE is able to keep their release date, would solve the problem, but I'm not sure Mark would allow that. </div> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">I make packages as KDE makes releases.  KDE 4 in feisty includes almost all the modules now, they should be passing through NEW today.
