KDE Sets Roadmap for Development

,----[ Quote ]
| Seigo also said the KDE team will not leave its 3.5 users in the lurch, 
| delivering an upgrade to that release, known as KDE 3.5.9, in February. 
| 
| "We haven't forgotten about [KDE] 3.5, because we have a lot of users with 
| large installations and they don't change their installations very often," he 
| said. "[KDE 3.5.9] will come with an enterprise version of Kontact," the KDE 
| PIM (personal information manager).   
| 
| The KDE team will continue to support KDE 3.5 because the move to KDE 4.0 is 
| a big jump for organizations that prefer to migrate slowly, KDE officials 
| said. KDE 4.1 is expected to ship in July.
