 Being shared libraries, the recompilation would not change anything, the
library improvements will happen without the need of recompilation. 

 I think we just need to mention in the announcement that they work. 

 On the other hand: we might make a "technology preview" release at some
moment let's say in a month from now. I think that everything else besides
KWord actually is more stable now than at 2.0 and the new components are
definitely worth to be showed at some moment.
