For the last three month's we have been adding features and fixing bugs and now \
invite you to test the beta pre-release of Plasma 5.14. A lot of work has gone into \
improving Discover with adding the Firmware Update feature and many subtle user \
interface improvements to give a smoother feel. Many effects in our window manager \
KWin have been rewritten or improved for slicker animations in your work day. \
Amongst other improvements made is a new Display Configuration widget which is useful \
with giving presentations. Please test and give us bug reports and feedback, the \
final release is scheduled for three week's time.");?> </p>
