 KDE Community Improves Desktop with KDE 4.1.2 Codenamed "Codename"

KDE Community Ships Second Translation and Service Release of the 4.1 Free 
Desktop, Containing Numerous Bugfixes, Performance Improvements and 
Translation Updates

October 1, 2008. The KDE Community today announced the immediate availability 
of "Codename", (a.k.a KDE 4.1.2), another bugfix and maintenance update for 
the latest generation of the most advanced and powerful free desktop. Codename 
is a monthly update to KDE 4.1. It ships with a basic desktop and many other 
packages; like administration programs, network tools, educational 
applications, utilities, multimedia software, games, artwork, web development 
tools and more. KDE's award-winning tools and applications are available in 
more than 50 languages.

Desktop Effects in the KDE 4.1 workspace

KDE, including all its libraries and its applications, is available for free 
under Open Source licenses. KDE can be obtained in source and various binary 
formats from http://download.kde.org and can also be obtained on CD-ROM or 
with any of the major GNU/Linux and UNIX systems shipping today.
Enhancements

As a service release, the changelog contains a list of bugfixes and 
improvements. Note that the changelog is usually incomplete, for a complete 
list of changes that went into KDE 4.2, you can browse the Subversion log. The 
most significant changes are:

    * Deleting files got a nice 32 times speedup.
    * Many bugfixes and improvements in KHTML and its new JavaScript bytecode 	
		interpreter Frostbyte. "Stop animations" is back in Konqueror.
    * The Kopete Instant Messenger team fixed crashes in the ICQ, Yahoo and 			
		Gadu-Gadu protocols.
    * Comicbook backend fixes in the document viewer Okular
    * Fixes in Gwenview's thumbnailing,
    * Various crash fixes in KGpg, the PGP security utility.

To find out more about the KDE 4.1.x desktop and applications, please refer to 
the KDE 4.1.0 and KDE 4.0.0 release notes. KDE 4.1.2 is a recommended update 
for everyone running KDE 4.1.1 or earlier. This release will be followed up by 
more x.y.z updates over the next months and ultimately by a new feature 
release, KDE 4.2.0 this coming January.
