# khal v0.8.0 released

The latest version of khal has been released: khal v0.8.0 (as always, also on pypi).

We have recently dropped python 2 support, so this release is the first one that only supports python 3 (3.3+).

There is one more backwards incompatible change: The color grey has been renamed to gray, if you use it in your configuration file, you will need to update to gray.

There are some new features that should be configuring khal easier, especially for new users (e.g., new command configure helps with the initial configuration). Also alarms can now be entered either when creating new events with new or when editing them in ikhal.

Have a look at the changelog for more complete list of new features (of which there are many).
