because it use qt3 and qt3 break binary compatibility. So most of the Qt apps 
will be break.

yes.  think about the stability that is meant to be associated with the 
x.2 release.  Mdk tends to do a good job following this scheme with only 
a few big flukes (devfs call had to be made and i am not as sure as 
others that it was wrong, esp with its easy dont-use-it-ability)

I'm guessing that the development period of kde3 is much longer than that of
Mandrake 8.2. I'm sure they want a stable kde in the final release of 8.2,
so they are probably waiting until 8.2 is released before they put kde3 in
cooker... i may be wrong, but that's my guess.

KDE3.
