GNOME 2.29.90 beta tarballs due
Another week, another release ! 2.29.90 tarballs are due next Monday. Be aware that we are entering UI freeze territory now. Tarballs are due on 2010-02-08 before 23:59 UTC for the GNOME 2.29.90 beta release, which will be delivered on Wednesday. Modules which were proposed for inclusion should try to follow the unstable schedule so everyone can test them. Please make sure that your tarballs will be uploaded before Monday 23:59 UTC: tarballs uploaded later than that will probably be too late to get in 2.29.90. If you are not able to make a tarball before this deadline or if you think you'll be late, please send a mail to the release team and we'll find someone to roll the tarball for you! No UI changes may be made at all without confirmation from the release team and notification to the documentation team. For more information about 2.29, the full schedule, the official module lists and the proposed module lists, please see our colorful 2.29 page: http://www.gnome.org/start/unstable For a quick overview of the GNOME schedule, please see: http://live.gnome.org/Schedule Thanks, Matthias
And you'll
enjoy some cool stuff, like an updated nautilus with its changed focus
(see discussion on nautilus-list), or various modules like
gnome-control-center with tons of bug fixes. You can also take a look at
gnome-keyring which has changed quite a bit internally... There are
definitely many changes in there, so it's a good time to do some deep
testing!
You all know what you have to do now. Go download it. Go compile it. Go
test it. And go hack on it, document it, translate it, fix it.
To compile GNOME 2.29.4, you can the jhbuild [1] modulesets [2] (which
use the exact tarball versions from the official release):
