As the first major update to the KDE 4.0 code-base, KDE 4.1 is scheduled to be released later this month. The most recent development release was KDE 4.1 Beta 2, but arriving this afternoon is KDE 4.1 Release Candidate 1. The final release is planned for July 29 with this being the latest test release before then to work out any last minute problems. The KDE 4.1 RC1 press release comes with a warning for those using NVIDIA's binary driver that there are currently some known performance problems.
