[mailto:[email protected] Cyrille Berger] is acting as release coordinator for the KOffice 1.6 release.<br /><br />
KOffice 1.6 will be released independently from KDE. But new development will only happens for a few applications (mostly Krita, Kexi and KChart), other applications are developed for the version 2.0 of koffice.
 
==The genesis of the 1.6 version==
