And repeatedly implying that KDE SIG members and KDE
developers are dishonest about their intentions and
referring to KDE SC 4.5.1 as "vaporware" is not a
troll?

Your argument seems to boil down to "the kdepim developers
have released a beta, but that beta is not supposed to be
tested by anyone, because the KDE release that will be out
by the time the kdepim final release is out has not been
released yet". Sweet logical fallacy, Batman.

The kdepim 4.5 beta is out now. It's supposed to be used
for testing together with KDE SC 4.5 RC1 (because that's
what's there now and it's what kdepim has been developed
against). That's the combination that Rex intends to put
into kde-unstable. That combination consists of pre-re-
leases the KDE SIG expects to see in Fedora 14 as final
releases.

You've so far completely failed to make a coherent argu-
ment as to why kdepim 4.5 beta1 is not supposed to be
tested in the same way any other KDE beta release has
been when it came out.
