KOffice 2.3 RC 1
By Cyrille Berger
The KOffice team is happy to announce the first release candidate of the upcoming 2.3 release of KOffice. This release only adds bugfixes from the previous beta version.
With only a couple of release blockers, the final version is very close.
Between 2.3 beta 4 and 2.3 RC 1 there have been 229 commits by 26 different authors.
All applications have received bug fixes and improvements. Krita is the application with the biggest team behind it and therefore also the most active one, and the team is aiming at making an almost perfect release.
The import filters for Microsoft formats continue to be improved at a furious rate. We are now starting to see cases where the look of a document in KOffice is better than in any other free office suite.
Sources and Binary Packages
The source code to KOffice 2.3 RC1 can be downloaded from download.kde.org. Binary packages will be available and announced separately as soon as the respective distribution provides them.
