Hi,

Since KDEStudio (the latest guest-CVS version from thekompany.com) is
widely using GPL code of KDevelop, I doubt if they could ever release
such a commercial version.

Just wondering...

KDE Studio Gold is a commercial release of our Open Source KDE Studio
project. KDE Studio is already enormously popular - why produce a
commercial version ? The simple answer is that there are several features
and additions which are consistently requested, and we decided to bundle
these (and more) together with full documentation into a product for
professional KDE development.

This new release delivers a full-fledged IDE for the development of
sophisticated C++ KDE applications - including the high utility 
features you expect from a modern development environment, such as code completion,
dynamic syntax highlighting and popup function parameter lookup.
Debugging is simplified by tight integration with kdbg in the IDE, and
comprehensive documentation is provided in the form of a "Getting Started"
guide and a reference manual.

KDE Studio supports complex projects, composed of multiple executables,
static or shared libraries, all in one centralized workspace, including 
support for multiple targets from a single project.

You can explore the structure of your classes with an intuitive tree view.
Functions and data members are exposed for a quick understanding of
library structures. The class tree is updated on the fly while you type 
your code.

Place bookmarks on your code to speed up navigation.

Integrated support for Qt Designer files where clicking on a .ui file 
will bring up Qt Designer. Clicking on .po files brings up KBabel for translation. Qt
Designer is a product from Trolltech AS.

The Gold release is available in two editions - Standard and Professional,
both of which are available as a physical media or in electronic form. This
flexible packaging and pricing allows you to get the components you need at
the right price for your budget.

Both editions include all the same features and documentation, however the
Professional Edition also includes Qt, KDE, libc & kernel documentation
integrated into the help system. With the press of a (configurable) button,
you can quickly find out the parameters and documentation to any function.

We are taking presales on both editions right now. The application will be
available in electronic form in early February 2001 as will the 
extended help interface for the Professional Edition. Purchasers of both the physical \
and electronic versions will have access to the electronic version as soon 
as its available. The hard copy release will be shipped as soon as the 
packaging is back from the printer.

In consideration for early adopters of KDE Studio Gold we will be
extending a discount on all sales made prior to the actual availability 
date. Pricing follows:

Standard Edition
$24.95 - $19.95 if purchased during pre-sales, download only, all electronic doc
$44.95 - $34.95 if purchased during pre-sales, physical package with hard
copy doc

Professional Edition
$44.95 - $34.95 if purchased during pre-sales, download only, electronic doc
$69.95 - $54.95 if purchased during pre-sales, physical package with hard copy doc

Purchasers of KDE Studio Gold will be entitled to electronic updates at no
extra cost.

A KDE Studio mailing list for customers will be available as well as support
queues. We will answer these support questions as time permits, for priority
response you should take a look at our support services.
