>Description:
This part of the handbook makes multiple references to KDE2, but
KDE3 has been available for quite some time. This removes all
the instances of KDE{X} where it is not essential and in those
places where the version number is essential they have been
altered from 2 to 3. This process will need to be repeated in
line with future Gnome / KDE releases.
