KDE 3.5.8 Release Fixes Hundreds of Bugs
========================================

   The KDE community today  released KDE 3.5.8
[http://kde.org/announcements/announce-3.5.8.php].      While the
developers' main focus lies on finishing KDE 4.0, the stable 3.5 series 
   remains the desktop of choice for the time being. It is proven,
stable and well    supported. The 3.5.8 release with its literally
hundreds of bugfixes has again    improved the users' experience. The
3.5.8 info page [http://www.kde.org/info/3.5.8.php] lists how to get the
sources and distribution packages.

     The main focus of improvements for KDE 3.5.8 is

    *  Improvements in Konqueror and its web browsing component KHTML.
      Bugs in handling  HTTP connections have been fixed, KHTML has
      improved support of some CSS features for more standards
      compliance.
    *  In the kdegraphics package, lots of fixes in KDE's PDF viewer
      and Kolourpaint, a painting application, went into this release.
    *  The KDE PIM suite has, as usual, seen numerous stability fixes,
      covering KDE's email client KMail, the organizer application
      KOrganizer and various other bits and pieces.

     For a more detailed list of improvements since the KDE 3.5.7
release [http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-3.5.7.php] on the
22nd May 2007, please refer to the KDE 3.5.8 Changelog.
