Kopete IM Client (KDE)

File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: 0.12 Beta 2

Notes:
This is Kopete 0.12 Beta 2, the third prerelease in the Kopete 0.12 series. Please see the changelog
on sourceforge.net for more information about the many changes included in this release.

People using the following versions of KDE should be able to compile and install Kopete 0.12 Beta 2:
 KDE 3.3
 KDE 3.4
 KDE 3.5

Please note that emoticons will not work if Kopete is compiled against KDE 3.3 due to the move
of emoticon support into kdelibs during the development cycle for KDE 3.4

We urge everyone to compile and install this prerelease of Kopete as it will most likely be the
last prerelease before Kopete 0.12.0 is released.

Kopete 0.12 will be the last Kopete release for the KDE 3.x series
