With very few exceptions, Kubuntu developers are volunteers and have the unenviable task of setting QA vice feature development priorities given their resource constraints. One way to encourage Kubuntu developers is to become one, and in that respect you, too, would contribute to fixing existing bugs instead of putting in new features.

For Kubuntu only, you can upgrade to 9.10 from 8.04 LTS or from 9.04.
There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third one works.
