Doesn't one say  "in the way"?

I plan to release 1.0.3 also on the 15th. It's a pure maintenance release. If 
you want, you can add that to the announcement. Maybe, something like this:


As a continued support for our KDE3 users, the team releases KMyMoney 1.0.3 at 
the same time. This maintenance release contains some fixes and improvements 
we found during the development of the KDE4 version and backported to it.
