I agree with you Sid. If Kubuntu should go worse and worse, I'll change 
distro, even if I'm an active contributor of Kubuntu (localization).

I'll continue to contribute to KDE, obviuosly.

I've chosen KDE as my preferred DE, and I don't like Gnome very much.

Note also that, while KDE team develops many important apps, like Kontact, 
Kmail, Koffice, integrated in Kubuntu, Gnome doesn't. Now default e-mail and 
browser for Ubuntu/Gnome are Thunderbird and Firefox, which are a Mozilla 
project. I think this is an easier way to work.

The (my real) dream is that all Distro teams "unify" their efforts to create a 
big, strong, stable, to create an unique, KDE distro able to compete with 
major companies' software (I mean Windows and Apple). Of course, there could 
be some task-oriented variants (e.g., for graphics, music, edu, and so on), 
but the core should be only one with one year cycle and a great community 
involved to develop and test it. 

Let's see :)
