KDE-Redhat has its own active list of pleasant folks, including the package maintainers. KDE-Redhat is maintained by folks who feel the Fedora project tends to more heavily tilt towards Gnome. They keep their KDE packages much more closely in step with KDE releases - they had KDE 3.4 packaged for FC3 for months before FC4 was released, for instance. Last night they just updated the packages to 3.4.2 - You can subscribe to their light-volume list here: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kde-redhat-users Disclaimer: I'm not part of the KDE-Redhat team - just a satisfied consumer. -- Claude Jones Bluemont, VA, USA
