From the alt.sci.seti newsgroup:

KSetiSpy 0.5.2 has just been released.

1. For those who don't know what KSetiSpy is:
KSetiSpy is a clone of the popular SETI Spy windows utility by Roelof Engelbrecht. It's written in C++ using KDevelop (for more information about KDevelop, see http://www.kdevelop.org), and runs on Linux, *BSD, and any other Unix system to which KDE has been ported.

2. For those who already know what KSetiSpy is:
Version 0.5.2 introduces two important changes:

a) A dialog has been added to setup the CGI parameters for connecting to the SETI@home server (many thanks to Roelof for giving me this idea).
You can see a screenshot of the new dialog here:

b) The icons of the program have been redesigned. They are distributed both in bitmap form and as SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics).
A screenshot of the new look can be found here:

A screenshot of an early draft of the new icon set being edited using Sodipodi (a SVG editor for Gnome) can be found here:
