Kde 3.1 questions

[Tim Wunder]

Man, you anti-KDE guys kill me.
You haven't used KDE since 2.2.1, yet you're willing to speak on how bad it 
is? FYI 2.2.1 was released Spetember 19, 2001 
(http://www.kde.org/info/2.2.1.html), yes 2001!
That's, um, a while ago...
I assume I don't need to tell you how long 16 months is in OpenSource time...

If you want to dislike KDE, fine, but don't you think you should base your 
opinion on something a little more current?

I found 2.2.1 problematic, myself. 2.2.2 was much better. 3.0 was kinda 
flakey, but by the time 3.0.5 rolled out, most of its flakiness was worked 
out. 3.1 is better, as will 3.1.1 be. I'm currently running something between 
the two, pulling 3.1 branch from CVS fairly regularly.

Sorry, I happen to *like* KDE.

Regards. 
Tim
