Status
------

This change has been marked as submitted.

Review request for KDE Websites, kdewin, Ralf Habacker, and Patrick Spendrin.

Changes
-------

Submitted with commit c1e1d1498b855896fe72c71622cfb6f1eae4706c by Albert Astals Cid \
to branch master.

Repository: windows-kde-org

Description
-------

So, while trying to find out, how to bring a KF5 version of RKWard to Windows, one of \
the places where I was looking for information was windows.kde.org. That did not help \
me much. Here's a suggestion for slightly more up-to-date information.

Key changes:
- Mention the fact that the KDE installer is still the easy way to install most KDE \
                apps, but in a rather old version.
- Mention the fact that at least some applications offer more recent single-app \
                installers.
- Remove the overly caution warning about applications being "not yet in a final \
state". What really is? And many apps can in fact be used productively on Windows, \
                even if they may have more bugs on that platform, than on Linux.
- Links to techbase seemed to be a bit redundant, I tried to reduce that.
- Remove mention of specific version of Windows. Win 8 and Win 10 seem to work, too. \
Support for Win XP applies to the old installer, only, not current (emerge).
