Thank you!

Really, I don't see the problem as being a problem with the KDE
developers at all! They are doing what they should be. Maybe the
released a bit early but so what? I mean no one makes you install it
in your distro.

However there is a problem with making KDE4 the default in a newbie,
workers and average users distro like Kubuntu.
