That's plainly wrong. The Live CD is supposed to and is tested to run fine 
also on real hardware. Unfortunately it seems that it does not on all. :-(

Anyone who can help with information about his hardware and/or testing of eg 
the openSUSE 10.3/11.0 Live-CDs to track down this problem instead of just 
generalizing "doesn't work for anyone" is welcome.

You don't "fix" that by calling something "Release Candidate".

In the case of 10.3, the Beta releases were imho usable. Most major problems 
were reported and fixed. Sadly some people started to test only when it was 
in "Release Candidate" state (note the difference to just calling it that) 
and expected new reports to get fixed when only blocker fixes were allowed.

In the case of KDE 4.0, nobody tested/used it as daily desktop environment
(in opposite to runing a single application) during the Beta releases. One
observation was that people who participated in the KDE2 or KDE3 beta testing
completely missed the KDE4 beta cycle (because it was as desktop environment 
unusable until recently). Why not just continue to have 2 or 3 months Betas?

That was an oversight upstream, if it says it's 3.96 then it's "RC 1". If you

No, there will be no package patches for upgrading. You can either register

I don't think that there was ever disagreement about the content of the deal

The icon size of the "old" menu style is an upstream configuration setting:
try something like "kwriteconfig --file kickerrc --group menus --key 
MenuEntryHeight 16" and restart the panel ("dcop kicker Panel restart").

Thanks for your offer but I now already accepted Donnie Bhayangkara to main-

maintainer (I guess opensuse-buildservice would the right place to discuss?).

As the build service improves we not only want to increase the number of avai-

and have packages (co)maintained by the community. I will post later a list 
of (leaf==not default KDE installation) packages we search maintainers for.

I did not say that it is misused. We don't know if the developer has the 
ability to view the transaction history (including credit card information)
or if/how he is participating in the sales made via this features. Because of
these open questions the SUSE build of Amarok disables Magnatune integration.

Like the implementation how your credit card information is submitted and that 
it is posted under the personal account of one Amarok developer at Magnatune?

as previously suggested by Sonja we have now created a new mailing called 
opensuse-project to separate the project and community related discussion 
from the generic support questions the "opensuse" list gets flooded with.
