KDE 3.5.0/1 had grave bugs, leaving users with lost addressbooks and such. = KDE=20 3.5.2 is not even out of our 30 days testing period and I have still a few= =20 patches enqueued to be applied. I can live with users complaining, but that= =20 doesn't mean it's not going on ones nerve. Especially when developers fall= =20 into the chorus, it's getting uneasy. It's ready, when it's ready. Really.
