Indeed, updated version:


,----[ beta3_release_announcement ]-
| The KDevelop team is proud to announce the third public beta of
| KDevelop4. This release includes some major new features, such as a new
| <a href="http://zwabel.wordpress.com/2009/03/13/really-rapid-c-development-with-kdevelop4">code-writing
| assistant</a>, a new <a
| href="http://www.proli.net/2009/02/28/kdevelop4s-documentation-integration/">documentation
| plugin</a> showing you the API dox for Qt and KDE apis, a reworked
| mercurial plugin and a rewrite of the classbrowser plugin. On top of
| that we improved stability a lot, did tons of little improvements in all places
| and fixed as many bugs as we could. 
| 
| Unfortunately we also had to let go two plugins from the kdevelop source, QMake support
| and Qt Designer integration. Both are currently not very usable and thus have
| been moved to the <a
| href="http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/devtools/kdevelop4-extra-plugins/>KDevelop
| playground area</a>.
| 
| You can fetch the source packages for KDevPlatform and KDevelop from the
| <a
| href="http://download.kde.org/download.php?url=unstable/kdevelop/3.9.93/src/">KDE
| mirrors</a>. Be sure to download both packages.
