KDE 3.2.0 Released

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the get-your-gui-on dept.

Quique writes "KDE 3.2 has just been released. The official announcement is available at the KDE site and the source tarballs are being replicated to the mirrors. There are already binary packages for a few distributions. Besides the usual bugfixes and new features, this release has been highly optimized and runs way faster than previous versions. This is a good opportunity for Windows users to migrate to a free desktop."

  1. Re:Windows already comes with a free desktop by haeger · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Where I live (Sweden) You are not allowed to use the word "free" (or gratis which is the translation) in an ad without really giving it away.
    Free (gratis) means no strings attached here so if someone sais "Buy one, get one for free" You can actually go in and ask to have the "free" one and they can't deny You that. If You know your rights.

    Naturally noone in their right mind uses the word "gratis" in ads anymore here. :-)

    One could only hope that our government would disallow more bastardisations of words (and standards).
