------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  === KDE ===
  
  This release features [http://kde.org/announcements/announce-4.0.2.php KDE] [[GetVal(DocsDict,KDEVer)]]. As the `kdepim` and `kdevelop` packages are not part of KDE 4.0 and `kdewebdev` is only partially available (no Quanta) in KDE 4.0, the KDE 3.5.9 versions of those packages are shipped.
+ 
+ [http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.0/ KDE 4.0] features upgrades to core components such as the port to Qt 4. It also introduces a number of brand new frameworks such as the Phonon, a multimedia API; Solid, a hardware integration framework; Plasma, a re-written desktop and panel with many new concepts; integrated desktop search; compositing as a feature of KWin; and a brand new visual style called Oxygen. [http://kde.org/announcements/announce-4.0.2.php KDE 4.0.2] is a bugfix release from the KDE 4.0 release series.
  
  Fedora 9 does '''not''' include the legacy KDE 3 Desktop. It does include a compatibility KDE 3 Development Platform, which can be used to build and run KDE 3 applications within KDE 4 or any other desktop environment. See the ''Backwards Compatibility'' section for more details about what is included.
