When KDE 4.0 was released in January a consensus was reached that major
releases of KDE 4 should occur at six month intervals.  Although there
has been some discussion of four month cycles, the consensus for six
month cycles still seems to be firm:

    KDE release   -in->    Fedora
    4.0 Jan '08          F9 May '08
    4.1 Jul '08         F10 Nov '08
    4.2 Jan '09         F11 May '09
    4.3 Jul '09         F12 Nov '09
