Hi,
I would like to stay on Hardy since I prefer working with KDE 3.5x.
It's simply more solid and complete, at least for me.

Moreover Hardy currently supports my nvidia 7600 excellently, while I 
have my doubts for intrepid, having heard about so many nvidia 
nightmares with Intrepid's new X version on the lists.

However I am interested to explore the latest and greatest KDE 4 stuff
from time to time in order to make a qualified decision about when it is 
time to finally swith to 4.x (whatever "x" will be at that time).

I find Hardy to be stuck with KDE 4.12 while Intrepid is on 4.13 (and 
going upwards, I believe).

My question:
Are there recent KDE 4 packages for Hardy available anywhere?
Are there any plans for KDE 4 upgrades?

I searched via google and ppa and that did not reveal anything.

If all else fails, is there a possibility to do it "viceversa" and 
operate Intrepid solidly with KDE 3.5?

Just to be clear, I do NOT want to continue the ever lasting "KDE4 ok 
for daily work?" discussion.

And also, I am not interested in "why did they do it or what could have 
been better?" prosa.

Thanks much for help and kind regards
Eberhard
I just want to have both, including the very latest packages from KDE4.x
