Konversation 1.5 adds numerous major features over the previous stable
release. Of particular note are support for SASL and client
certificate authentication, all-new topic management UI, overhauled
authentication UI in the Identities dialog, per-tab spell-checking
language settings, user-configurable nick context menu entries, mouse
spring-loading on tabs, all-new versions of major bundled scripts and
improved Ignore and Watched Nicknames systems. Many under-the-hood
changes to improve codec support and general performance, along with
the usual slew of bug fixes all over, further sweeten the deal.

A brief selection of highlights since v1.3.1:
* URL and email detection in text views has been rewritten from scratch, greatly
improving the handling of various types of URLs and the contexts they might
appear in.
* Extensive improvements to IRC formatting code handling, including the return
of background color support.
* Extensive, sometimes full rewrites of user interface elements such as nearly
all context menus, the URL Catcher and the Warning Dialogs system for a long
list of user interface improvements and bug fixes.
* Improved SSL connection behavior.
* Translation support and various other improvements in several bundled scripts.
* Expanded Python scripting support via the introduction of an API support
package.
* Support for more IRC numerics.
* Various bugfixes to input line command handling and connection behavior.
Konversation 1.3.1 is a maintenance release that improves program behavior
and fixes defects.
Konversation 1.3 debuts a major new feature in the area of
Direct-Client-to-Client (DCC) support: An implementation of the DCC
Whiteboard extension that brings collaborative drawing - think two-player
Kolourpaint - to IRC. It also brings back the integration with KDE's SSL
certificate store the KDE 3 version enjoyed and expands support for
auto-away to the Windows and Mac OS X platforms thanks to both recent
advances in the KDE 4 platform and new code in Konversation. Interface
tweaks, new keyboard shortcuts and many bugfixes round things out.
