KDE 4.1 released

    KDE Releases Improved Desktop and Applications Dedicated to Uwe Thiem  


July 29, 2008. The KDE Community today released KDE 4.1.0. This release is the
second feature release of the KDE 4 series, sporting new applications and
newly developed features on top of the Pillars of KDE4. KDE 4.1 is the first
KDE4 release to contain the Personal Information Management suite KDE-PIM with
its E-Mail client KMail, the planner KOrganizer, Akregator, the RSS feed
reader, KNode, the newsgroup reader and many more components integrated into
the Kontact shell. Furthermore, the new desktop shell Plasma, introduced in
KDE 4.0, has matured to the point where it can replace the KDE 3 shell for
most casual users. Like with our previous release much time has been devoted
to improving the framework and underlying libraries on which KDE is built.
 Dirk Müller, one of KDE's release managers gives numbers: "There have been
20803 commits made from KDE 4.0 to KDE 4.1 along with 15432 translation
checkins. Almost 35000 commits have been done in work branches, some of them
also being merged into KDE 4.1, so those were not even counted." Müller also
tells us that KDE's sysadmin team has created 166 new accounts for developers
on KDE's SVN server.
