Now that the third and last maintenance update of the KDE Applications 16.04 software suite has been released, it's time for us to take the Beta build of the next major KDE Applications release for a test drive.

Yes, that's right, we're talking about KDE Applications 16.08, the next major update of the suite of KDE applications that are mandatory for the KDE Plasma 5 desktop environment. And it looks like KDE Applications 16.08 Beta is now ready for public testing via the official channels of several GNU/Linux operating systems, and your help is needed to report bugs and other issues.

If you're wondering what major changes will KDE Applications 16.08 bring, we can tell you right now that it should contain the akonadi-contacts, akonadi-mime, and akonadi-notes packages, ports the Cervisia, KolourPaint, KDF apps to KDE Frameworks 5, and drops the mplayerthumbs, libkdeedu, kdepimlibs, kdesdk-strigi-analyzers, kdenetwork-strigi-analyzers, and kdegraphics-strigi-analyzer packages.
