+Qt 4.3.1 is a bug-fix release. It maintains both forward and backward
+compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 4.3.0.
+
+The Qt version 4.3 series is binary compatible with the 4.2.x, 4.1.x and
+4.0.x series. Applications compiled for Qt 4.0, 4.1 or 4.2 will continue to
+run with Qt 4.3.

+
+General Improvements
+--------------------
+
+- Translations
+ * Updated the German translation to provide complete coverage of Qt.
+
+- QDBusView
