+ KDE Software Compilation 4.5.4 for Windows available

+ <p>The KDE on Windows team is overly pleased to announce the release of Windows \
packages for the KDE Software Compilation 4.5.4. This release is doubly important \
because it marks the return to the headlines of the KDE Windows Initiative after a \
lot of hard background work and because it brings the KDE SC 4.5 series to the \
Windows users.</p> + <p>Although still not considered stable and suitable for \
production work, this release brings to the table a lot of new improvements worth \
trying: + <ul>
+ <li> all the <a href="http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.5/">goodness brought \
by KDE SC 4.5</a>; + <li> all the <a \
href="http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.5.4.php">bugfixes brought by the \
4.5.4 minor release</a> and six months of work from the KDE Windows team; + <li> \
the <a href="http://apachelog.wordpress.com/2010/11/30/phonon-vlc-0-3-rock-solid/">lastest \
version of Phonon-VLC backend</a> is available as the default backend; + <li> \
support for two new compilers: mingw-w32, a more updated distribution of Gcc for \
Windows provided by the <a href="http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net">mingw-w64 \
project</a>, and vc100, the Microsoft compiler provided in <a \
href="http://www.microsoft.com/express/Windows/">Visual Studio 2010 Express \
Edition</a>. These, in the future, will respectively replace mingw4 and vc90 (both of \
which are however supported in this release). + </ul>
+ <p>
+ <p>Aside from the software improvements mentioned above, the Windows team has \
worked under the hood to lower the barrier of <a \
href="http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-windows/2010-November/005254.html">contribution \
to development</a> and <a \
href="http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-windows&m=128812965819938&w=2">community \
participation</a>. This release itself is the result of a <a \
href="http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-windows/2010-December/005385.html">common \
release effort</a> to fix the remaining compiling issues. The KDE on Windows team is \
quite proud of this common release effort and hopes to repeat it in the near future \
when KDE 4.6 is released. We hope you'll "join the (KDE on Windows) game" too!</p> + \
<p>Users can test this release by using the <a \
href="http://windows.kde.org/download.php">KDEWin Installer</a> to try out all the \
software available. Included in this release are kdebase (both the applications and \
the workspace), kdeedu, kdegames, kdegraphics, kdemultimedia, kdenetwork, kdesdk, \
kdetoys, kdeutils, and several stuff from extragear like amarok, digikam and \
kipi-plugins, kmymoney, konversation, kmid, kile and quassel. Be aware that these \
could kill your kitten(s), but chances are that you might find yourself quite \
comfortable in using some of these applications.</p> +<br/>
