[ANNOUNCE] rekonq 0.2.0

[Andrea Diamantini]

Here we are, after two beta releases to fixing bugs and let translators work, 
we have our 0.2 release!

In this release we are starting to explore simpler and more beautiful UI (not 
final yet, anyway), refactoring some code, give a try to webkitKDE and the KIO 
porting of Qt NetworkAccessManager.
As these last thinks seems not yet stable, we decided to go for 0.2 with 
QtWebKit and just "partial" KIO::AccessManager support, but our eyes and 
intentions are pointed to the KDE classes.

We also decided to continue development in git (and gitorious), waiting for 
the BIG kde switch. So, it's us, waiting for KDE. Funny ;)

rekonq improvements from previous 0.1.0 release:
- New (again) and unique loading url bar (and expect something better for 
0.3..)
- Integrated google search (CTRL+L to have urlbar focus, type ciao, click 
enter and search google for it!)
- simpler and better UI (again, NOT final!!)
- new experimental notification system
- KDE Web shortcuts support (gg:ciao search google for ciao, wp:ciao search 
wikipedia for it)
- Improved Contextual actions menu
- KDE cookie system support
- tons of bugs fixed

rekonq 0.2 seems a really beautiful release and a huge step forward 0.1. 
Anyway, it is surely NOT (yet) intended for production.
Perhaps 0.3 will be. Who knows?

As usual, download it from our sourceforge site (waiting for a rekonq.kde.org 
domain.. ) or from the beautiful kde-apps. 

Do it now!
And enjoy!
