Like you I was a long term KDE user until the switch to 4.0 - once I had swapped to Gnome I had little incentive to spend time to learn the new way with KDE 4 once it had stabilised (prioritisation of time issues!). However maybe now KDE 4.4.0 is a good desktop again so perhaps I should have a go and see how it ticks! > I actually like the current general pace - its stable but we get > decent flow (tho it has slowed somewhat over the 12-18 months or so it > seems) of upstream updates/bug fixes and largely when appropriate larger > version bumps.

I also like the general pace and most of the time the developers and maintainers give us a really (b)leeding edge Linux and most of the time I am happy to do the tweaks that are needed when things don't quite go according to plan to get back on track, and equally I try my best to participate by testing new stuff when I can, including testing packages from the build system before they get to testing repos since I am only too aware that overall the more testing packages get the more likely it will lead to a trouble free release to updates at the end of the process. > Congrats fedora management, redhat and contributors - and thank you. I will certainly second that - overall we should be very grateful to the many people to devote so much time to making Fedora what it is for the huge number of people who benefit by having a modern fast and leading distribution. Those thanks go just as much to developers, Fedora decision makers, the sig teams as well as the packagers and maintainers - and also to all of us who use the final product without whom the effort would have no purpose!
