KDE ha rilasciato oggi la prima release candidate di KDE 4.8
L'obiettivo del team è ora focalizzato a correggere eventuali bug e a rifinire le funzionalità aggiunte.
Ecco alcune delle novità di KDE 4.8 RC
- Qt Quick in Plasma Workspaces -- Qt Quick is making its way into the Plasma Workspaces, the new Plasma Components provide a standardized API implementation of widgets with native Plasma Look and Feel. The device notifier widget has been ported to using these components and is now written in pure QML. KWin's window switcher is now also QML-based, paving the way for newly designed window switchers.
- Dolphin's file view has been rewritten for better performance, scalability and more attractive visual appearance.
- KSecretService optionally enables a shared password storage, therefore making your saved passwords available to many other applicatios, leading to a more secure system and better integration of non-KDE apps into the Plasma Workspaces and KDE apps into non-Plasma workspaces.
- Many performance improvements and bugfixes improve the overall user experience, making the KDE Applications and Workspaces more productive and fun to use than ever before.
Devo dire che dopo aver provato KDE 4.8 dai repo sperimentali di Kubuntu posso dire senza ombra di dubbio che KDE 4.8 sarà la miglior versione di KDE mai realizzata.
