and the combination is which i really not understand

* kernel -> conservative
* kde4/gnome3/systemd -> go ahead with all consquences

and the kernel is really not a big deal because the updates
are normally not invasive

the mistake happended long before!

as KDE4.0 was anounced for F9 nobody did know if they are
ready and which state kde4 would have in the first release

nobod said that there was no hard work

but is it really needed to decide major upgrades without knwoing
what state the software finally would have instead take a breath and
fixing existing bugs since every 6 months is a new release and no
reason to hurry

it would be really a godd idea to take every second release only
for bugfixing and kernel-upgrades for hardware-support and only
every econd release to bring new stuff - there are so many small
bugs and edges everywhere that there is no need for such a hurry
