Hi, everyone,

I did a rebuild of my main system, got it all cleaned up and configured the 
way I wanted, and then installed Kooldown, a/k/a KDE 1.93, a/k/a KDE 2.0 Beta 
4.  

I've only been using it for a few days, but it's sure come a long way since 
Kleopatra (KDE 1.91).  It really loooks to be ready for release.  All the 
apps work, none have crashed on me yet, and all have a much nice look and 
feel.  A lot have had features added/finished, and all the bugs from 
Kleopatra seem to be gone.  I'm impressed!

Oh, one note:  this time the install did hose a few things in KDE 1.1.2.  
Nothing that can't be fixed, and the two can be run side-by-side, but there's 
some reconfig work if you need to do that.  The thing is, there is no reason 
not to work in KDE 2 any more :)

Best,
Caity
