Hello all,

This is 3.1.91, and it's out!

Development: GNOME 3.7.3 21 weeks 2 days ago

Hi all.

GNOME 3.7 development is well underway, with the 3.7.3 snapshot that is marking the third release of this development cycle [1].

To compile GNOME 3.7.3, you can the jhbuild [3] modulesets [4] (which use the exact tarball versions from the official release).

GNOME Release Team plans to ship GTK+ 2.90 from GNOME 2.31.4 on.

This requires module maintainers to port their modules now (if you don't want an angry release-team mob soon in front of your house).

We strongly encourage maintainers to * fix compiling with GSeal (check http://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/UseGseal to see if your module is affected). * remove/replace calls

While most of you are enjoying the brand-new release of the popular GNOME desktop environment, version 3.8, deep down in some "caves" the GNOME developers are hard at work, forging the features of the next major release, GNOME 3.10.

The GNOME developers announced a few days ago that a new development version of the GNOME Initial Setup software for the GNOME desktop environment is available for download and testing.

GNOME Initial Setup 0.7 has been ported to libgd and the Clutter dependency has been removed.

hi! i'm trying to compile scribes following the sites instrunctions

i'm having this error:

Code: Checking for GNOME Python... yes Error: gnome-python-desktop was not found.

Hi,

The GNOME Release team has officially deprecated libglade in favor of GtkBuilder.

Some reasons: * GtkBuilder is actively maintained. * GtkBuilder can create non-widgets (like treemodels). * It's one less library.

Aim is to get rid of libglade for GNOME 3.0.

Hello world!
