Na ongeveer een half jaar in ontwikkeling te zijn geweest kan nu op de website van de KDE organisatie versie 3.4 van de K Desptop Environment worden opgehaald, de desktopomgeving voor Unix-achtige systemen. De nadruk in deze versie is het beter toegankelijk maken van de software. Zo is text-to-speech één van de meest in het oog springende toevoegingen. Hieronder staat een opsomming van de belangrijkste verbeteringen in deze release:
