You're totally mistaken. KDE cares about the BSDs, and they're very much no-nonsense people. I had absolutely no difficulty getting an account with them, nor with folding back portable patches I had to make things work on OpenBSD. The main reason we're behind for kde4 is that it's mostly impossible to compile kde4 with gcc3, so there is some upheaval there. Also the fact that back when I ported kde 4.0, it was not interesting at all, especially compared to 3.5.10. Other issues have happened since then. It shouldn't be that hard to get kde4 to work, once you get past the gcc4 issue (and port cmake, but apparently 2.8.0 is nicer).
