I have usually been very happy with the RH updates alone, and in the odd case 
I needed a more up to date package, just compiled it from sources. However, 
KDE is a big whammy, and whereas ordinarily I would wait calmly for the next 
big release, the changes in Hebrew support make me want to get the latest 
version.

I assume there are some list members who do run 3.0.2. Well, tell me, do Kate 
and Kwrite finally support Hebrew properly (no cursor-oblivious-to-rtl 
problem)? Is Kate no longer sluggish on large documents? How about the latest 
beta of KOffice, does it still suffer of the above hinted problem it shares 
with KWrite in 3.0?

I the above problems are solved, I will possibly want to compile a few 
packages from sources (which ones? Assuming I only care about the above. I 
guess KDEbase, libs, the kate stuff, the kwrite stuff and the koffice stuff).
