I'm a KDE HT and one of the maintainers of KDE overlay. I use KDE snapshots (currently KDE RC1) in my laptop and KDE live ebuilds on desktop, so I use the overlays' ebuilds for everyday use for a long time now. KDE itself had many issues, a significant amount of which have been resolved. No crashes, many missing features are imported and many many impressing innovations being introduced in every full recompile. Although there are still some missing KDE4 or QT4 applications like k3b, and some others have some features missing, depending on what a user needs. But the upstream KDE developers are doing a great job, they import features and solve bugs very quickly and i can recommend the overlays for everyday use. Concerning the Gentoo KDE Team, we are fully prepared for the upcoming KDE 4.2 release, we have made major changes to kde4 eclasses, supporting many features that were announced by scarabeus, and we still solve bugs for 3.5 and 4.1 releases. *The latest 4.1.4 release hit the tree the same day it was released by upstream *and it was available in kde-testing overlay a week ago hardmasked! KDE itself is a popular area amongst Gentoo projects and this can be easily seen in our IRC channel and our bugzilla list. So, please stop complaining for non-existent problems and go help the community :)
