Welcome to a new edition of This Month in KDE Linux, dedicated to KDE’s next-generation operating system. October was another infrastructure-heavy month for the project.

Another consisted of moving KDE Linux’s OpenQA system to a dedicated server on KDE infrastructure, and off of Harald Sitter’s personal server.
