Posted by Michael Larabel on August 30, 2007

Rex Dieter has announced that the KDE spin of Fedora 8 will not include KDE 4.0 by default. The KDE 4.0 desktop environment may appear later in the Fedora repository, but it will not ship with Fedora 8. Rex, who is the KDE Red Hat project leader, says KDE 4.0 will be out for Fedora 9. According to the Fedora Project Wiki, KDE 4.0 for Fedora is about 20% complete.
