Preface
- CAUTION! Be aware that beta testing is potentially dangerous to your installation. Don't install beta versions on production systems. If you are aware of the risks and that's ok for you: Keep on. Your help is appreciated. Nevertheless, especially for beta versions goes: This software comes with no warranty at all!
- Before starting beta testing it's a good idea to make a backup of your configuration, stored in ~/.kde/share/config/konversationrc, and your application data, stored in ~/.kde/share/apps/konversation.
- If you found a bug or have a feature request, let us know by filing it in the KDE Bug Tracker.
