KOffice 2.3 beta1

The KOffice team has just released version 2.3 beta1. KSpread is now ready for end user production work, we think, and Krita is reaching professional quality. You can read more about the release on www.koffice.org. But! To make it really good, you have to test it and tell us about bugs that you find. After all, that is the main purpose of a beta release. Please download it, and test it as much as you can.

New things in the upcoming 2.3 are:

• Text on shapes are now supported everywhere.
• A new slide sorter view in KPresenter.
• Shape animations, also in KPresenter.

There are also lots of bugfixes, especially in the more complex aspects of the text layout. As usual the import from various MS formats have been improved a lot. You can find most of the details in the list of changes.
