"The KDE Team today announced the release of KDE 2.0.1, a powerful, modular, Internet-enabled desktop. KDE 2.0.1 is a translation and bug-fix release and follows six weeks after the release of KDE 2.0, which constitutes the next generation of the award-winning KDE 1 series. KDE is the work product of hundreds of dedicated developers originating from over 30 countries."

"The primary goals of the 2.0.1 release are to improve documentation and provide additional language translations for the user interface. As a result of the dedicated efforts of hundreds of translators, KDE 2 is now available in 33 languages and dialects, including the addition of Japanese in this release. Code development is currently focused on the branch that will lead to KDE 2.1, scheduled for release in first quarter 2001, so only a few significant code fixes and improvements are included in this release. A list of these changes and a FAQ about the release are available at the KDE website."

"KDE 2.0.1 includes the core KDE libraries, the core desktop environment, the KOffice suite, as well as the over 100 applications from the other standard base KDE packages: Administration, Games, Graphics, Multimedia, Network, Personal Information Management (PIM), Toys and Utilities."
