The 3.5 release of the KDE (linux) desktop environment has come today. Among other things, konqueror is now the second browser to pass the ACID2, CSS rendering test (ahead of Internet Explorer and Firefox). Konqueror also sports a new adblock feature. There are new applications in the kde-edu cluster of apps as well. This is expected to be the last major release before the KDE 4 series (which should be a fairly big change.) Service releases will be released as necessary for 3.5

There's a visual guide to the changes here, and the official announcement can be found here. The site is a bit slow at the moment, I see the link just got posted at slashdot.
