Just to provide a very quick response, it IS possible to install a  
testing version (Frameworks based) along side a stable version (KDE4  
based).  However, it is not trivial, and it will take me a bit to dig  
out the indstructions, as I've got it all done by scripts now.  The  
easy part is running the new version with a copy of your .kmy file, not  
the original, so you keep them separate in case of any problems.
