KDE 3.5.5 Release Announcement
==============================

October 11, 2006 (The INTERNET). The KDE Project today announced the immediate 
availability of KDE 3.5.5, a maintenance release for the latest generation of 
the most advanced and powerful free desktop for GNU/Linux and other UNIXes. 
KDE now supports 65 languages, making it available to more people than most 
non-free software and can be easily extended to support others by communities 
who wish to contribute to the open source project. 

Significant enhancements include: 

  Version 0.12.3 of Kopete replaces 0.11.3 in KDE 3.5.5, it includes support
  for Adium themes, performance improvements and better support for the Yahoo!
  and Jabber protocols. 

  Support for sudo in kdesu. 

  Support for input shape from XShape1.1 in KWin (KDE window manager).

  Lots of speed improvements and fixes in Konqueror's HTML engine, KHTML.
 
  CUPS 1.2 support in KDEPrint. 

  Big improvements in the number of translated interface elements in Chinese
  Traditional, Farsi, Khmer, Low Saxon and Slovak translations.

For a more detailed list of improvements since the KDE 3.5.4 release on the 
2nd August 2006, please refer to the KDE 3.5.5 Changelog. 

KDE 3.5.5 ships with a basic desktop and fifteen other packages (PIM, 
administration, network, edutainment, utilities, multimedia, games, artwork, 
web development and more). KDE's award-winning tools and applications are 
available in 65 languages.
