That's the release date from upstream KDE. We never claimed it was going to hit 
F9 updates the same day! The estimates I have frequently given were:
* updates-testing: end of July / beginning of August - We hit that just fine.
* stable updates: around mid-August - We may be a few days late there 
(depending on how you interpret mid-August), but it's because we have been 
fixing bugs which could make 4.1 actually worse than 4.0 for some users. 
Pushing an update which fixes some things for some users and breaks other 
things for other users is not an option! The kernel maintainers don't push new 
kernels to F9 the day they're released at kernel.org either, for the same 
reason!

If you didn't want 4.0, you should have stayed on F8 until 4.1 comes to F9. And 
if you have been able to cope with it for 6 weeks, I don't see why one or two 
weeks more or less would change anything.

Don't worry, 4.1 is coming soon. But flaming us on the mailing lists won't make 
it come any sooner! (Personally, it even makes me want to intentionally delay 
it to make you suffer, I'm that kind of person. :-p But luckily for you, I want 
to provide the best experience for users who _aren't_ posting flames like this 
and we have no way to provide updates only for nice users. ;-) )
