>> I heard it practically daily in the run-up to KDE 4.0 when everybody was complaining about it being unstable. It was the standard excuse for why 4.0 was so buggy.

Without a source your statements are useless. Also, if 4.1 is more stable than 4.0, then saying that 4.1 will be a stabilizing release is accurate. Without a change in Plasma API, perhaps it could have been more stable. But if we were after ultimate stability, KDE 4 would never have been started, so this argument is stupid.

>> I'm now using GNOME

And yet you still feel the need to troll the KDE boards. Apparently you aren't happy with Gnome either, otherwise you wouldn't ever look back.

>> I have to keep hold of KDE for work purposes, but I'm not using it on a daily basis any more.

The fact that you apparently need KDE for work is telling.

>> Correction: 3.5.9 is as stable as it is because it has had 6 years of development *that wasn't focused on major re-architecting*.

No shit. That's the point.

>> The post-4.0.x work that has gone into Plasma so far is the latter.

If you're not involved, you can't possibly know that. I'm using a snapshot of 4.1 right now that is much more stable than 4.0.x ever was.

Sorry, you're the one using the classic trolling tactic of only partially quoting the other person. The quote in full:

> I'm now using GNOME, and I have to say, KDE isn't the racehorse it used to be. I have to keep hold of KDE for work purposes, but I'm not using it on a daily basis any more.

It's quite obvious that using KDE is a necessity to me regardless of what I think of it or GNOME.

If you cannot debate sincerely, please just be quiet.

    The funny thing is I included the rest of your quote 2 lines down from that line.. But I guess you didn't read the rest of my post...
