The KDE Project today announced the release of KOffice 1.1beta2. KOffice is an integrated office suite for KDE which utilizes open standards for component communication and component embedding. The primary goals of this release, which comes 4 weeks after the release of KOffice 1.1beta1, are to provide a preview of KOffice 1.1 and to involve users who wish to request missing features or report problems. Code development is currently focused on stabilizing KOffice 1.1, scheduled for final release this summer. This release includes the following components: KWord (a frame-based, full-featured word processor); KPresenter (a presentation application); KSpread (a spreadsheet application); KIllustrator (a vector-drawing application); Krayon (a bitmap image editor); Kivio (a flowchart application); KChart (a chart drawing application); KFormula (a formula editor); Kugar (a tool for generating business quality reports); and filters (for importing/exporting documents).
