For your information. I think it would be great to have something about 
accessibility and mentionning the future steps of the project and the 
collabaration with Gnome.

hi all...

with the release of KDE 3.2 approaching, i'd like to put together an
 article about the NEW things in KDE 3.2. i'll most likely write a small
 intro (1-2 paras) highlighting KDE in general, but then quickly segway
 into a trip through All That's New In 3.2 ...

this is not intended to compete with the release announcement or the usual
"New Features Guide" release that usually accompanies a KDE release. this
 is meant to augment them. the intention is to provide a high-speed "from
 the horses mouth" look at the brand new apps of KDE, of which there are
 plenty in this release. i also want the article to be a bit more informal,
 lighter and more fun than the traditional KDE release promo literature.

but i don't want to write it all on my own. not just because i'm a lazy
bastard, but because i think it would be really cool for the users of your
software to hear your voice. if you've added a new and/or interesting app/
applet/library to 3.2, here's what i'm looking for: a couple paragraphs (at
most) explaining what your app does and why it's cool, interesting, useful,
whatever. maybe why you wrote it, your favourite feature in it, or who your
intended audience is/was. screenshots are also highly desireable.

don't worry about making the text perfect or formatting it.. just send me
 the plain text and screenies via email and i'll put it all together in
 time for 3.2 ... if for some reason you don't want your name to appear in
 a by-line, please note that in your email as well.

below is a list of "new things" in 3.2 that i'd like to include bits on. if
you are the author, please consider drafting something up and sending it my
way. if i've missed something in the list, which wouldn't suprise me due to
the shear volume of changes, don't hesitate to do the same =)

if you've ripped an app apart and/or improved it so radically that it's
practically a new app, i may consider including it, but i think that's
 better served by the New Featres Guide.
