You suggest that feature-incomplete software replace their feature-complete
counterparts and be pushed to end users to get feedback? What feedback do you
want? I personally compared Kaddressbook 4.3 to 4.4 and filed bugs that listed
all feature regression, some of which were major. Want other feedback do you
need from _end_users_ at that point?

Are you suggesting that pushing feature-incomplete experimental versions of
otherwise stable software to end users is not harmful? Please tell me, what is
the purpose of KDE SC, if not to provide usable software for the end user? From
the kde.org homepage:
"...dedicated to creating a free and user-friendly computing experience..."
Shipping feature-incomplete software as a replacement for working software is
user-friendly?
