Just in time for Xmas the digiKam team has released the 0.9.0 of digikam.

This release is a source tarball package for compilation. If you rather prefer to install the binaries for your Linux distribution, you'll have to wait a little while until they are available.

KDE 3.5.5

KDE 1537 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

KDE 3.5.5 has been released:

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.

Boson 0.13

KDE 1537 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

Release of Boson 0.13, a Real Time Strategy (RTS) game for the K Desktop Environment.

Most of the work since the last release has been on behind the scenes features, such as fixing various issues with the new cmake based build system (which has made our life a lot easier) and a lot of small code improvements. Also the groundwork of a few new features has been layed that will get used in a later release, but are not yet supported by the game. An example here is code support for radar jammers.

The actual user-visible highlights of this release:
* New fog of war. In addition to the original fog of war that covers the whole terrain until it has been explored by a unit, we also have "fog" that covers all units that are outside the players' sight range.
* Icons for distant units: Units that are very far away from the camera position are replaced by a constant-size icon showing unit's type and it's owner's status toward you (friendly/neutral/enemy). This makes it possible to still recognize units that would otherwise be a small dot on the screen only.

Note that many core features are still in development and thus Boson is still mostly unplayable.

For a longer, though still very incomplete list see
http://boson.eu.org/announces/changelog-0.13.php

Requirements
You can find a list of hardware and software requirements at http://boson.eu.org/info.php
Note that proper 3d acceleration is required.

KDE 3.5.3

KDE 1537 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

KDE 3.5.3 has been released:

The KDE Project today announced the immediate availability of KDE 3.5.3, a maintenance release for the latest generation of the most advanced and powerful free desktop for GNU/Linux and other UNIXes. Unusually for a maintenance release, new features were implemented due to the long release cycle of the eagerly-awaited KDE 4. Stability and speed were also improved, along with increasingly complete translations in 65 languages.

Significant enhancements include:

KDE startup sequence reordered to improve startup time.
Over 800 minor issues fixed thanks to Coverity, as part of a project initiated with funding from the United States Government.
Small new features were implemented in Akregator, KMail and KAlarm. This release alters the tradition of limiting "maintenance releases" to bug fixes. "Feature freeze" was relaxed somewhat to accommodate qualitative improvements held back by the long release cycle of stable 3.5.x series.
KDE 3.5.3 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 including two new languages: Vietnamese and Kazakh.
