| KDE Project ships second beta of KDE 3.0 |
Feb. 13, 2002
Here is an excerpt from an announcement at KDE.org . . .
The KDE Project today announced the immediate release of KDE 3.0 beta2, the third pre-release of the third generation of KDE's free, powerful, easy-to-use, Internet-enabled desktop for Linux and other UNIXes. This KDE 3.0 beta ships with the core KDE libraries, the core desktop environment, and over 100 applications from the other base KDE packages (administration, games, multimedia, network, PIM, utilities, artwork, addons, development, edutainment, bindings, etc.). KDE 3.0 is scheduled for final release early in the second quarter 2002, with one or more intervening "RC" releases preceding the final release.
"Beta2 has come a long way since beta1", explained Dirk Mueller, the KDE 3 release coordinator. "At this juncture a lot of user testing would be very beneficial, as a large group of KDE developers are meeting for a week at the end of February in Nürnberg, Germany to ready the KDE 3.0 final release. In addition, this release provides one of the last great opportunities for developers to port KDE 2 applications to KDE 3 prior to the final release. We're especially interested in feedback about the support for right-to-left languages and about the new KDE 3 features. For developers, now is a great time to complete porting your applications to KDE 3, or to pitch in and help implement the still-incomplete planned features."
