KDE neon User Edition 5.6 Release Notes

KDE neon user edition 5.6 has been released.

Announcement: http://dot.kde.org/FIXME

What's in the Release

KDE neon is a way to get the latest KDE Plasma and related software. We are pleased to have implemented the main features of KDE neon and take off the tech preview label.

It is available on a rapidly updated continuous delivery model with installable images and a package archive.

It contains:

  • KDE Plasma 5.6
  • KDE Frameworks 5.22
  • Applications selected by KDE's Visual Design Group to work well with KDE Plasma: Kate, Firefox, Konsole, KDE Connect, VLC, Spectacle, Dolphin, Print Manager. We will now start adding all KDE applications to our package archive.

We build our software using modern devops technologies that scan for the latest released sources and automatically integrate that with our packaging to make it available to users quickly and smoothly. Technologies used include Jenkins, Ruby, Aptly, Docker and on demand cloud computers.

Download the installable images now: http://neon.kde.org/download
