+
+But that's exactly my point, there is posts about fear/paranoia of
+conflicts here in this thread, not a factual argument on real existing
+conflicts.
+Like I said before, KDE3.5 coexisted very well with KDE4 since 2009.1 on
+Mandriva and Trinity is even more so being developed with coexistence in
+mind, so there shouldn't be any unsolvable issues.
+
+But again my point is issues should be debated constructively and factually
+when they are being encountered, not a whole software package being
+dismissed in advance out of general fear and paranoia.

+
+This is exactly what I would call a reasonable factual argumentation.
