i won't even argue the basis of your statement, but i will say that regardless of what anyone thinks about 4.0 it should not create subsequent paralysis and start us down a path of second-guessing and changing from the accepted release regimen. > A high visibility bug like this will cause us even more grief. it's not high visibility. it's one odd visual artifact in konsole kpart usage when right clicking, and then only when you can see the top of the scroll area. it's not great, but it's hardly high visibility or of the sort that will "cause us even more grief". > A delay of a couple of days, on the other, people will understand. if we delayed for every bug of this magnitude, we'd never release. it seems that in all the noise some of us lost the point that the idea is to release often with repeated cycles of improvement. others can crow about how bad that is, but honestly .. they are wrong. so we can choose between doing the right thing or doing what the loud mouths of the world think is right. note that now even the SJVNs of the world are eating their words given the results we're posting. -- Aaron J.
