Absolute and final decisions have not been made, so I'd say that previous statement may be a bit misleading. What *will* happen for sure: * Both kde3 and kde4 runtimes and development environments will be included in f8. Will probably happen: * kde4 runtime/development landing in rawhide in time for test2 (*crosses fingers*) Undecided: * the kde4 desktop environment is, at present, still unstable and under heavy development, so, odds are, that a full kde4 desktop environment will not be ready for inclusion in f8. We're still open to the possibilty that a miracle occurs and that kde4beta2 exceeds expectations stability/usability-wise and that the kde4 final release schedule has no slippage. That's a lot of ifs... -- Rex -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
