KDE 3.0 beta 1 is out

Posted by HeUnique on from the let-the-tests-begin dept.

From the development team who tries to break every development speed record (last month they released KDE 2.2.2) comes KDE 3.0 beta 1, with lots of new features, new QT (3.0.1). It is beta 1 so expect crashes. You can find release notes and download locations over . A full feature list of whats planned to be on KDE 3.0 is also available (hmm, quite a big list) and some screenshots are available here. Please read the README files for your favorite distribution before installing the files as those packages are not replacing the KDE 2.2.X binaries (if you have it installed).

    You missed out two things:

    - The "KDE and gnome are both cheap imitiations of the Windows GUI" posts
    - The "KDE and GNOME are bloated and slow, use a window manager like WindowMaker" posts
