lists.ubuntu.com— Kubuntu's next release will offer options of both KDE 3.5 and KDE 4, and due to the latter, will not have the LTS designation from Canonical, while Ubuntu 8.04 still will.

The Kubuntu team would spend too much time creating security/bug fixes for KDE 3.5 packages (which would be falling out of use during the lifetime of the LTS), not enough time advancing Kubuntu's KDE 4.
MEPIS, Opensuse, PCLinuxOS and Mandriva seem the main contenders. There's also Arklinux, Arch Linux and ArchMod, Pardus Linux... And Fedora has a dedicated KDE group as well, so plenty to choose from.

It may be somewhat confusing but it allows me to choose which one has, for me the most stability. I can't complain too much! - <a class="user" href="http://www.nassonu.edu">http://www.nassonu.edu</a>
