Plasma 5.2 beta live ISO and packages available

[Daniel Vrátil]

Hi all,

KDE has released Plasma 5.2 beta on Tuesday, and If you want to take a sneak 
peek into what's coming in Plasma 5.2 and do some testing to help upstream to 
iron out all the issues before release, you can now do so on Fedora!

There's live ISO based on Fedora 21 available from here:
	http://pub.dvratil.cz/plasma/iso/5.1.95/

If you want to install beta packages on your computer (or VM), you can do so 
from plasma-5-beta Copr (see Installation Instruction on the Copr page for 
details):
	http://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/dvratil/plasma-5-beta

Note that you should install the beta only if you really want to help with 
testing, or if you have serious issues with the stable Plasma 5.1.2 from 
plasma-5 Copr that might be fixed in the upcoming 5.2 release. It's still just 
a beta release, so you have to expect some unstability.

If you want to switch from KDE 4 to Plasma 5 for production use, we recommend 
using the stable plasma-5 Copr which currently ships Plasma 5.1.2:
	http://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/dvratil/plasma-5

We'll update the plasma-5 Copr to 5.2 once it is released. Plasma 5.2 final 
release is scheduled on the end of January.

If you run into any issues or bugs, please DO REPORT them to upstream 
bugtracker (bugs.kde.org), so that upstream can fix them.


Cheers,
Daniel
