KDE 3.1 Alpha1 is Here

navindra writes: "A brand new alpha of the breath-taking KDE 3.1 development branch has been announced. This release sports everything from wonderful new eye candy to tons of popular new features including new and exciting "easter eggs" (aka bugs) just waiting to be discovered. Remember, this is not a stable release -- those of you concerned with stability should use KDE 3.0.2, whereas those of you who want to help KDE 3.1 be the best KDE ever should use this alpha. Kudos to Dre for writing the announcement and to the tireless Dirk Mueller for coordinating this release. Party!" On a related note, pAlpha writes: "Over the past years a large amount of myths has built up around KDE. Recently Aaron J. Seigo released a page about the KDE myths and facts." Good for convincing the boss.

    I would just like to thank /. for their amazing ability to link to pages with high resolution images knowing fully that the hosting server will be slashdotted in a number of seconds.

      Why not a cache server for linked sites?

    "You do realise that /. is frequented by folks who know what "it's an Alpha version" means, yet will still download and try it? Ya, them "geek" types."

    Then please explain why (before Slashdot was commercialized) that the _public weblogs_ said that roughly 90% of the users was viewing slashdot through WIn(X ver) on IE ?
