Today KDE released KDE Applications 14.12, delivering new features and bug 
fixes to more than a hundred applications. Most of these applications are 
based on KDE Development Platform 4 but the first applications have been 
ported to KDE Frameworks 5. Frameworks is a set of modularized libraries 
providing additional functionality for Qt5, the latest version of the popular 
Qt cross-platform application framework.

The release includes the first KDE Frameworks 5-based versions of Kate and 
KWrite, Konsole, Gwenview, KAlgebra, Kanagram, KHangman, Kig, Parley, 
KApptemplate and Okteta. Some libraries are also ready for KDE Frameworks 5 
use: analitza and libkeduvocdocument.

Libkface is new in this release; it is a library to enable face detection and 
face recognition in photographs.

Some of the new features in this release include:

- KAlgebra has a new Android version thanks to KDE Frameworks 5 and is now 
able to print its graphs in 3D
- KGeography has a new map for Bihar.
- The document viewer Okular now has support for latex-synctex reverse 
searching in dvi and some small improvements in the ePub support.
- Umbrello—the KDE UML modeller—has many new features too numerous to list 
here.
