K3b 1.0 release candidate 6 has been released:
With the Sonnet library for KDE 4, developer Jacob Rideout hopes to reinvigorate the field of desktop linguistics by adding automatic language detection and other innovative features. Sonnet is to be for KDE 4 what KSpell 2 is for the current version of the K Desktop Environment, providing spellchecking facilities to applications as diverse as the Konqueror Web browser, Kopete instant messenger, and KWord office software. Unlike KSpell, however, it will also provide grammar checking, multilingual tools, and perhaps even translation, dictionary, and thesaurus functionality across all of KDE.
KDE 4's Sonnet will turbocharge language processing

Based on KPDF 3.5.5, KPD2 adds support for user bookmarks and margin notes. Users can add bookmarks with name and comments either to a page or to a region of a page using the selection tool. A tool panel on the left side shows all of the bookmarks added to a document and allows easy navigation (left click) to a bookmark and the ability to edit and remove bookmarks (right click). Bookmarks are saved in a an .xml file that is saved to the directory where the .pdf file resides with the name <pdf name>.kpdf2.xml.
All feedback seriously considered and appreciated.
