2008-April-29 - First alpha release of KDevelop 4.0
KDevelop 4.0 has been under development since 2005 and is a complete rewrite from scratch.
It has a lot of new features that were hard or impossible to achieve with the KDevelop 3.x codebase, but it also has some regressions.
Today KDevelop 4.0 alpha 1 (3.90.0) got
released together with KDE 4.1 alpha 1.
Development is moving very fast, as you can see in the

2008-February-28 - Binary snapshot of the stable KDevelop with a critical bugfix
It seams that the official KDevelop 3.5.1 release had a critical bug:
Compiler errors were not shown in output window.
But thanks to an user that posted reproducible steps on how to trigger the bug,
the KDevelop team was able to fix it and release
binary packages with the fix within hours of the bug report.
This proves that reporting bugs correctly, allows us to fix them faster.

2008-January-29 - Website improvments
During the month of January the website was converted from HTML 4.01 Transitional to
HTML 4.01 strict
and the content got separated from the presentation which is now exclusively done in
CSS.
Tables are no longer used to create the website layout; so it now renders progressively with the main content served before the navigational elements being therefore faster, this also allows people with disabilities to visit our site now.
The new structure is more search-engine friendly, and
website maps for search engine robots
are now created daily so the current 1627 unique pages of this site and the 84 unique pages of it's wiki get indexed only when they change, allowing more frequent and precise crawls, at the same time reducing wasted bandwidth (unmodified pages do not get crawled).
The 7841 posts of the
forum
are not yet indexed by the search-engines because their information flows into the FAQ, wiki and user-manual pages, and this saves bandwidth.
This website contains 500033 html links, all of them were checked with
linkchecker
and only a few of them (< 100) are broken, mostly links published more that four years ago. Enjoy, Amilcar Lucas.
2008-January-18 - KDevelop 3.5.0 binaries for Solaris 8 to 10, on SPARC and x86 platforms
You can download it from the
KDevelop 3.5.x download page.
2008-January-15 - Seventh binary snapshot of the stable KDevelop 3.5.x release series
For a detailed list of changes see the
detailed changelog.
You can download it from the
KDevelop 3.5.x download page.
A new GDB snapshot is also available for download, it fixes the regressions of the previous versions and adds the possibility to add breakpoints in the class constructors.
