FOSDEM 2012 - Crossdesktop Devroom Call for Talks

FOSDEM is one of the largest gatherings of Free Software
contributors in the world and happens each February in Brussels
(Belgium). One of the tracks will be the CrossDesktop DevRoom, which
will host Desktop-related talks.

We are now inviting proposals for talks about Free/Libre/Open-source Software
on the topics of Desktop development, Desktop applications and interoperativity
amongst Desktop Environments. This is a unique opportunity to show novel ideas
and developments to a wide technical audience.

Topics accepted include, but are not limited to: Enlightenment, Gnome,
KDE, XFCE, Windows, Mac OS X, general desktop matters, applications that enhance
desktops and web (when related to desktop).

Talks can be very specific, such as developing mobile applications
with Qt Quick; or as general as predictions for the fusion of Desktop
and web in 5 years time.
Topics that are of interest to the users and developers of all desktop
environments are especially welcome. The FOSDEM 2011 schedule might
give you some inspiration:

http://archive.fosdem.org/2011/schedule/track/crossdesktop_devroom

Please include the following information when submitting a proposal:
your name, the title of your talk (please be descriptive, as titles
will be listed with around 250 from other projects) and a short
abstract of one or two paragraphs.

The deadline for submissions is December 20th 2011. FOSDEM will be held
on the weekend of 4-5 February 2012. Please submit your proposals to:

TARBALLS DUE: GNOME 3.3.2 (UNSTABLE)

Hello all,

This is the tarball call for 3.3.2.

Tarballs are due on 2011-11-21 before 23:59 UTC for the GNOME 3.3.2
unstable 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 3.3.2. 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!

For more information about 3.3, the full schedule, the official
module lists and the proposed module lists, please see our colorful 3.3

GNOME 3.2 Released

                     GNOME 3.2 Released
                    ====================

Today, the GNOME Project celebrates the release of GNOME 3.2, the
latest version of the popular, multi-platform free desktop environment
and of its developer platform. With this timely release, we are
continuing our very successful, reliable six month release cycle
into the GNOME 3 era.

GNOME 3.2 is the first major update of the GNOME 3 platform. It
builds on the foundations that we have laid with 3.0 and offers a
much more complete experience. The exciting new features and
improvements in this release include new contacts and documents
applications, a new login screen, an on-screen keyboard, color
management support, and many more. For more information about
the major changes in GNOME 3.2, please visit our release notes:

  http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.2/

GNOME 3.2 will be available shortly in most distributions.
Live images of GNOME 3.2 are currently being prepared and will
appear soon at:

  http://www.gnome.org/getting-gnome/

This six months effort wouldn't have been possible without the whole
GNOME community, made of contributors from all around the world:
hackers, documentors, usability and accessibility specialists,
translators, maintainers, sysadmins, companies, artists, users and
testers. GNOME would not exist without all those people. Thanks very
