I don't think there is much to see yet. It is my understanding that the alpha of KDE3 was just a straight port of KDE2.2 to QT3.

Well, there is the one or the other new thingy in there like the side graphics in the K menu (which can be turned on or off) and the new spashscreen :) But basically, it's improvements that are now implemented. I'd like to mention that KOffice and KHTML seem to be the place with the most activity :)

koffice is DEFINITELY active!
check out lists.kde.org/?l=koffice
and
lists.kde.org/?l=koffice-devel

for mailing list archives.

of course, few more developers would still help, it's amazing how much they did considering the little number of them...

btw, writing my dissertation (about 45 pages for now) on kword from koffice 1.1 :o))

How do you make you citations endnotes, footnotes ?
Is there support for this in KWord?

There're also lots of nice improvements to the DCOP scripting facilities.

I'm running then alpha version (2.91 CVS >= 20011012) and it seems to be alot faster then
kde 2.2.1. There is also a very cool window deco named Glow where as the name says glows when the mouse is over one of it's buttons. Very very Kool

Really? Faster than KDE 2.2.1? Well, that's a relief and very good to hear. (unfortunately, I can't check for myself as I'm on vacation and the downloads are just impractical at this point...)

I've also found it to be faster, when starting up the desktop and when launching new konq windows. Unfortunately, kcontrol and konq keep krashing, but what do I expect with an alpha? :)

There really are very few user-visible changes. Everything looks exactly the same except for the side K-menu graphic, the startup spash screen, and the fact that applet handles on Kicker have little menu popup buttons. Also, there is a bug preventing anti-aliased fonts from being used so my desktop doesn't look as cool as it used to. There are a lot of bugs, in fact. The splash screen is available at www.kde-look.org if you want to take a look.

A lot of work is going on "behind the scenes" right now, and I think the user-visible changes (like new styles/icons/etc) won't happen until later.
