If you want to have the most up-to-date software try Arch Linux (I am a proud user).

They could add LTS to the next Kubuntu release 8.10 only for Kubuntu, I think. Does this mean they sould separate repositories for KDE after Ubuntu 8.10 support drop? Anyway DOUGman is right.

I want to be always updated!!! LTS is not advisable as open source has always new versions / very rapid development. I want to be always updated!!!

Canonical should mandate that the developers support KDE 3.5 until the next LTS. D. Why don’t they just use KDE 3.5 in 8.04 for LTS and offer 4 as an option for those that are willing to use it.

I think they should go with KDE 3 and provide LTS or provide it with a shorter support time if KDE 3 support totally gets dropped. But KDE 4 will not be stable for a while and now I can't suggest Kubuntu to my customers because we have no clue when the next LTS release date for Kubuntu will be. Could be 2 years from now! :-( Big mess. Kde 4 is not stable. I think they should go with KDE 3 and provide LTS or provide it with a shorter support time if KDE 3 support totally gets dropped.

Why don't you people smarten-up, and take some computer science courses? Why don't you learn how to manage software projects? Let me guess: There's no communication on the above projects, and the "community" is nothing more than a really bad forum running on PHP? YOU LINUX MORONS MAKE ME LAUGH.
