Re: wow

Just stop with the FUD. Before the API refactoring, Plasma was quite stable. And now, just slightly a week after said API refactoring, Plasma is stable once again. The API changes were necessary, and once all the obvious bugs that were introduced in the applets due to the API change are fixed, the base is only much more stable because it is now relying more on Qt4 code and less on custom Plasma code built to duplicate Qt4 features.

Read this for more, and keep in mind that what you are throwing a shit fit about is alpha software: http://aseigo.blogspot.com/2008/04/on-recent-libplasma-changes.html

"Disaster"? Hardly. Currently alpha-staged software? Yes. There is no doubt in my mind that KDE 4.1 will be awesome.

P.S. The default Plasma theme will go under the polishing board, and Oxygen issues such as the inactive window "problem" are being addressed.
