Konversation 1.2-alpha1 for KDE 4 released

[Eike Hein]

--- Description ---

Konversation is a user-friendly Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client
for KDE.


--- Release Notes ---

We're happy to bring you this first public release of the KDE 4
version of Konversation.

Despite the "alpha" moniker we've settled on for this one, mostly
due to not yet being feature-complete (see below), this port has
already been used productively by a fair number of people for some
time and should be stable enough for general usage. In fact, cer-
tain features, notably DCC file transfers and auto-replace, are
expected to be more robust than in Konversation 1.1.

While this version largely achieves feature parity with Konver-
sation 1.1 (and adds several new features on top), notable excep-
tions are the lack of support for marker lines as well as nick
and channel context menus in the chat view. These are pending the
merge of a rewritten chat view and will make a return before the
final Konversation 1.2 release. Other known issues in this version
include a lack of KDE 4 HIG compliance in the configuration dialog
and various minor interface polish problems; these will be add-
ressed as well.

Enjoy, and don't forget to report any bugs you encounter!
